Description Amit Shah 2011-11-17 09:41:11 UTC

Description of problem:

After a recent update of a few packages, I get this:

$ sandbox -X -W metacity -t sandbox_web_t -H ~/.sandbox_ff_home firefox
Error: User shell is not valid

The same happens w/o -H and -W options.

The list of selinux-related packages upgraded recently (via the updates repo):

selinux-policy-targeted-3.10.0-55.fc16.noarch
setroubleshoot-3.0.41-1.fc16.x86_64
policycoreutils-sandbox-2.1.4-6.fc16.x86_64
setroubleshoot-server-3.0.41-1.fc16.x86_64
selinux-policy-3.10.0-55.fc16.noarch
policycoreutils-python-2.1.4-6.fc16.x86_64
policycoreutils-2.1.4-6.fc16.x86_64

This is a bug in the bash update.

yum reinstall bash

Should fix.  

The update for some reason removed /bin/bash from /etc/shells.
