rm -f /etc/selinux/targeted/modules/active/modules/hotplug.pp

You might also want to look at any other files in this directory that are not
owned by an rpm package.

rpm -qf /etc/selinux/targeted/modules/active/modules/*.pp|grep owned


If there are pp files there that you did no install, you might want to remove
them also.


Something might have gone wrong on the long line of updates.
