Starting systemd 245 the daemon reloads SELinux contexts after a daemon-reload, but prior to that it needs to reexec. Both EL7 and EL8 are too old so this runs reexec. To limit the impact, it only does so if a package change was detected. This can fail if a metapackage (katello) already pulled in all packages but there's no reliable way to detect if a reexec is needed. Always running daemon-reexec can be unexpected.

@ehelms this may also explain what you saw with Pulpcore's socket. |

tests need updating. I think this will solve the issue for fresh installs, but not for upgrades, yet I am unsure how to solve it there. %post of foreman-selinux seems rather harsh. |

We would probably need to do the same thing in |

let's try theforeman/foreman-packaging#6052 then |

This is untested and I'm not even sure if my logic is entirely correct.
