Bug 590461

Summary:

SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/system-setup-keyboard "write" access on
xorg.conf.d.

Detailed Description:

[SELinux is in permissive mode. This access was not denied.]

SELinux denied access requested by system-setup-ke. It is not expected that this
access is required by system-setup-ke and this access may signal an intrusion
attempt. It is also possible that the specific version or configuration of the
application is causing it to require additional access.

Allowing Access:

You can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ
(http://docs.fedoraproject.org/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Please file a bug
report.

Hash String generated from  catchall,system-setup-ke,hald_t,etc_t,dir,write
audit2allow suggests:

#============= hald_t ==============
#!!!! The source type 'hald_t' can write to a 'dir' of the following types:
# hald_cache_t, hald_var_lib_t, hald_var_run_t, hald_tmp_t, var_lock_t, mnt_t, root_t, tmp_t, virt_image_type, cardmgr_var_run_t, sysctl_vm_t, hald_log_t, device_t, fusefs_t, dosfs_t, var_run_t, var_log_t, root_t

allow hald_t etc_t:dir write;
