/var/cache/hald/ is a system directory with SELinux context, with specific owner and permissions. hald very quickly drops root privs, and therefore cannot recreate a directory with root:root, when running as hald. You shouldn't delete this directory, just like you shouldn't delete /var/cache/ccache. |
