Description Josef Bacik 2008-12-12 14:15:31 UTC
Description of problem:
Whenever I try to run Revisor with SELinux in enforcing mode I get this pop up that reads

"SELinux is in enforcing mode on this host. Composing media will fail. Please set SELinux to permissive mode."

So a Fedora specific application that doesn't work with SELinux turned on?  Really this isn't FC2 anymore, this should not be a problem.  Maybe in Alpha/Beta, but by release these sort of things should really be fixed.

I'd file this under SELinux normally, but the problem is Revisor doesn't even run if it detects that the box has SELinux in enforcing mode, which is complete crap.  If SELinux does get in the way I should at least be able to use audit2allow to make it work, but I don't even have that option.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
(josef@unused)(189/pts/4)(09:13am:12/12/08)-
(%:~)- rpm -q revisor
revisor-2.1.3-1.fc10.noarch


How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Turn SELinux on enforcing
2. Try to run Revisor
  
Actual results:
Does not run, complains about SELinux being in enforcing mode

Expected results:
Should just work.
