Description Eddie Lania 2011-05-07 09:12:52 UTC
SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/python from 'create' accesses on the netlink_audit_socket Unknown.

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

If you believe that python should be allowed create access on the Unknown netlink_audit_socket 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 sealert /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp
