SELinux is preventing dbus-daemon

Summary

SELinux is preventing dbus-daemon(/bin/dbus-daemon)
(xdm_dbusd_t) "search" to
(xdm_var_lib_t).
Detailed Description

SELinux denied access requested by
dbus-daemon(/bin/dbus-daemon). It is not
expected that this access is required by
dbus-daemon(/bin/dbus-daemon) and this
access may signal an intrusion attempt. It is also
possible that the specific
version or configuration of the application is causing
it to require additional
access.
Allowing Access

Sometimes labeling problems can cause SELinux denials.
You could try to restore
the default system file context for <Unknown>,
restorecon -v <Unknown> If this
does not work, there is currently no automatic way to
allow this access.
Instead, you can generate a local policy module to
allow this access - see FAQ
(http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385)
Or you can disable
SELinux protection altogether. Disabling SELinux
protection is not recommended.
