It's official: SELinux is now available in the Ubuntu development ('Hardy Heron') distribution. "This is the result of the amazing work of the ubuntu-security and ubuntu-hardened teams, as well as the huge contributions from the folks at Tresys (SELinux will not be the default, but is available as a security option)." In other news, Sun has started offering Ubuntu as an option.

Debian has had selinux packages in the repositories for a long time now, but for some reason Ubuntu had gone with apparmor instead.
Though I've never tried actually setting SELinux up in Debian, every time I had tried Fedora, I ended up disabling it, because it was just annoying me. But that was a few releases ago, and I'd just automatically disable it during install on the later releases, so I'm not really qualified to say if it's still getting in the way on anything newer than Fedora 6.
