:*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests  ***************************
:
:If you believe that python should be allowed read access on the passwd file 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 tuned /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
:# semodule -i mypol.pp

Comment 1 Michel Alexandre Salim 2012-01-30 19:03:05 UTC
Happens when activating a tuned profile (or manually doing 'systemctl start tuned.service') on Fedora 17 with the usrmove repo.
