Description of problem: Due to some problems booting all the way to gdm (the system tends to hang), I'm doing some maintenance in a shell spawned by passing "single" on the kernel boot line. I did a "yum upgrade", and am now seeing lots of denials like this one: [ 252.359429] type=1400 audit(1308154283.833:99): avc: denied { read append } for pid=1024 comm="prelink" path="/dev/console" dev=devtmpfs ino=5213 scontext=system_u:system_r:prelink_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:console_device_t:s0 tclass=chr_file The upgrade appeared to complete normally. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): selinux-policy-3.9.16-28.fc16.noarch selinux-policy-targeted-3.9.16-28.fc16.noarch prelink-0.4.5-2.fc16.i686 How reproducible: Don't know. Only tried once. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot with "single" on the kernel command line. 2. Have at least one out of date package installed. 3. yum upgrade Actual results: The upgrade appeared to complete normally, but I saw multiple instances of the AVC denial shown above while the new packages were being installed. Expected results: No AVC denials. Additional info:
