Well, I just tried searching on user_avc, even after un-hiding the 
alerts. Result:

<no matches>

So what I submitted, has to be it.

But: might this have anything to do with it? I'm using KDE now, and one 
of the things that the installer had to do was to get into KWallet, and 
for that the system asked for my KWallet password, which I gave.

I'm new to KDE, and I'm surprised that I didn't use it earlier. KDE has 
an automatic package installer that has already made my life a lot 
simpler, and when I realized that I was using a lot of KDE-specific 
apps, KDE was the logical choice. But maybe KDE has some subtleties that 
occasionally create a security problem in a security-enhanced environment.
