Try # semanage fcontext -a -t nagios_unconfined_plugin_exec_t /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/myplugin The problem is label substitution. We substitute /usr/lib for /usr/lib64 in restorecon. (In reply to comment #1) > We substitute /usr/lib for /usr/lib64 in restorecon. That's it, thanks! Works fine on our systems with that substitution. I did read the restorecon man page before reporting the bug, but saw no mention of this there - might be useful to mention this label substitution there (and/or have "semanage fcontext" warn or do the reverse substitution if the user tries to add a /usr/lib64/ file context). I added a fix for this in policycoreutils-2.1.4-10.fc16 semanage fcontext -a -t etc_t /usr/lib64/dan /usr/sbin/semanage: File spec /usr/lib64/dan conflicts with equivalency rule '/usr/lib64 /usr/lib'; Try adding '/usr/lib/dan' instead policycoreutils-2.1.4-10.fc16 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 16. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/policycoreutils-2.1.4-10.fc16 Package policycoreutils-2.1.4-10.fc16: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 16 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing policycoreutils-2.1.4-10.fc16' as soon as you are able to. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2011-16077/policycoreutils-2.1.4-10.fc16 then log in and leave karma (feedback). policycoreutils-2.1.4-10.fc16 has been pushed to the Fedora 16 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. Could you add the fix also for fcontext equivalence rules, please? Test case: # semanage fcontext -a -e /mnt /fs # semanage fcontext -a -t var_lib_t /fs/database /usr/sbin/semanage: File spec /fs/database conflicts with equivalency rule '/fs /mnt'; Try adding '/mnt/database' instead # semanage fcontext -a -e /var/lib/mysql /fs/database/mysql # In the last command I think we should also get an conflict error message like in the command before. Otherwise the behavior of the SELinux implementation should be fixed. In the example above files in /fs/database/mysql are still labeled mnt_t instead of mysqld_db_t. SELinux Local fcontext Equivalence /fs = /mnt /fs/database/mysql = /var/lib/mysql This message is a reminder that Fedora 16 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 16. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '16'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 16's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 16 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle. Changing version to '19'. (As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.) More information and reason for this action is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping/Fedora19 This seems to be fixed in the current release. # semanage fcontext -a -e /mnt /fs # semanage fcontext -a -e /var/lib/mysql /fs/database/mysql ValueError: File spec /fs/database/mysql conflicts with equivalency rule '/fs /mnt'; Try adding '/mnt/database/mysql' instead |
