Description Renich Bon Ciric 2024-09-29 04:39:22 UTC
Description of problem:
I have virt-manager open. I am trying to start a new guest in Fedora 41 and it is not allowing me. 
SELinux is preventing pool-geoclue from 'search' accesses on the directory /var/lib/libvirt.

*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests   **************************

If you believe that pool-geoclue should be allowed search access on the libvirt 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 'pool-geoclue' --raw | audit2allow -M my-poolgeoclue
# semodule -X 300 -i my-poolgeoclue.pp
