Description Nikita Bige 2011-01-30 21:33:58 UTC
SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/python from 'search' accesses on the directory /root/.local.

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

If you believe that python should be allowed search access on the .local 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:
# grep certmaster /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

You can dontaudit it for now using
