Description stephen 2011-02-14 11:42:21 UTC
SELinux is preventing /bin/dbus-daemon from 'getattr' accesses on the file /etc/localtime.

*****  Plugin restorecon (99.5 confidence) suggests  *************************

If you want to fix the label. 
/etc/localtime default label should be locale_t.
Then you can run restorecon.
Do
# /sbin/restorecon -v /etc/localtime

*****  Plugin catchall (1.49 confidence) suggests  ***************************

If you believe that dbus-daemon should be allowed getattr access on the localtime file 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 dbus-daemon /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp
