That's because I have a patch to change the PACKAGECONFIG for selinux
in oe-core to fix a dependency issue:

-PACKAGECONFIG[selinux] = "--enable-selinux,--disable-selinux,libselinux"
+PACKAGECONFIG[selinux] = "--enable-selinux,--disable-selinux,libselinux,initscripts-sushell"

But it would be overrode by the one in enable-selinux.bbclass:
$ grep PACKAGECONFIG enable-selinux.bbclass
PACKAGECONFIG_append = " ${@target_selinux(d)}"
PACKAGECONFIG[selinux] = "--enable-selinux,--disable-selinux,libselinux,"

So I need to remove the inherit here in meta-selinux.

Thanks,
Jackie
