:*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests  ***************************
:
:If you believe that killall5 should be allowed getattr access on the dropbox <Unknown> 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 pidof /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
:# semodule -i mypol.pp

Comment 1 Daniel Walsh 2012-01-31 19:38:30 UTC
I have no idea why This seems particularily strange, unless dropbox sets up logrotate to watch the contents in a users homedirectory?

Comment 2 Miroslav Grepl 2012-03-15 15:37:59 UTC
How does dropbox logrotate file look?
