maxima fails to load because of selinux, other things happening

[Antonio Olivares]

Dear all, 

I am having difficulties with maxima because of selinux.  Other denied avcs have been
corrected by following troubleshooters advice.  

avc: denied { create } for comm="newaliases" egid=51 euid=0
exe="/usr/sbin/sendmail.sendmail" exit=-13 fsgid=51 fsuid=0 gid=0 items=0
name="aliases.db" pid=7643 scontext=system_u:system_r:sendmail_t:s0 sgid=51
subj=system_u:system_r:sendmail_t:s0 suid=0 tclass=file
tcontext=system_u:object_r:etc_aliases_t:s0 tty=(none) uid=0 

restorecon -v aliases.db

[olivares@localhost ~]$ su -

Did not work so I filed a bug report:
