Description nomnex 2011-03-08 06:13:55 UTC
SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/tzdata-update from read, append access on the file /tmp/tmpKvxmqb.

*****  Plugin catchall (50.5 confidence) suggests  ***************************

If you believe that tzdata-update should be allowed read append access on the tmpKvxmqb 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 tzdata-update /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

*****  Plugin leaks (50.5 confidence) suggests  ******************************

If you want to ignore tzdata-update trying to read append access the tmpKvxmqb file, because you believe it should not need this access.
Then you should report this as a bug.  
You can generate a local policy module to dontaudit this access.
Do
# grep /usr/sbin/tzdata-update /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -D -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

Comment 1 Miroslav Grepl 2011-03-08 11:48:31 UTC
What does the following output

# ls -lZ /usr/libexec/packagekitd 
-rwxr-xr-x. root root system_u:object_r:rpm_exec_t:s0  /usr/libexec/packagekitd
