Resolution:
If you have followed the uninstallation instructions to remove the previous Linux Security 64 or Elements Linux Protection installation and you still receive the "Warning: Installation timed out on setting up SELinux integration." error when trying to install the Linux client, check if you have SELinux in use.
If you have SELinux in use and you receive the error message even though you have set SELinux into permissive mode, it could be that the SELinux policy modules of a previous Linux Security 64 or Elements Linux Protection installation cause a conflict with the new modules that the installer is trying to set up.
You can use the semodule --list-modules command to list all the modules. If you can see in the resulting list any withsecure or fsecure related modules, please remove them using the semodule -r command. Then run the command semodule -B to recompile the active policy.
After you have done these steps you can try the client installation again.
