Description Mikhail 2023-03-30 19:33:20 UTC
Description of problem:
SELinux is preventing geoclue from 'watch' accesses on the directory /etc.

*****  Plugin catchall_labels (83.8 confidence) suggests   *******************

If you want to allow geoclue to have watch access on the etc directory
Then you need to change the label on /etc
Do
# semanage fcontext -a -t FILE_TYPE '/etc'
where FILE_TYPE is one of the following: geoclue_tmp_t, geoclue_var_lib_t.
Then execute:
restorecon -v '/etc'


*****  Plugin catchall (17.1 confidence) suggests   **************************

If you believe that geoclue should be allowed watch access on the etc directory by default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# ausearch -c 'geoclue' --raw | audit2allow -M my-geoclue
# semodule -X 300 -i my-geoclue.pp
