Description Rafi Baig 2011-05-10 18:43:10 UTC
SELinux is preventing /usr/libexec/polkit-1/polkitd from 'read' accesses on the directory /var/run/ConsoleKit.

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

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