Dear all,

As of updates to machine rawhide report 20080126, I
get the following warning from setroubleshoot:

Is it related to the previous one, dbus-daemon, or is
it a new one?

Thanks,

Antonio 

Summary:

SELinux is preventing
dbus-daemon-lau(/lib/dbus-1/dbus-daemon-launch-helper)
(system_dbusd_t) "execute" to <Unknown>
(consolekit_exec_t).

Detailed Description:

SELinux denied access requested by
dbus-daemon-lau(/lib/dbus-1/dbus-daemon-launch-helper).
It is not expected that
this access is required by
dbus-daemon-lau(/lib/dbus-1/dbus-daemon-launch-helper)
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.
Please file a bug report
(http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi)
against this package.
