:*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests  ***************************
:
:If you believe that gdm-session-worker should be allowed open access on the .xsession-errors <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 gdm-session-wor /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
:# semodule -i mypol.pp

Comment 1 Kevin Cameron 2012-02-22 18:45:32 UTC
This started 1-2 weeks ago.  I update my Fedora packages pretty much every day.

Comment 2 Daniel Walsh 2012-02-22 20:01:47 UTC
restorecon -R -v /home

It looks like the labels in your home dir are all wrong, did you remove the directory and restore from a backup?

Comment 3 Kevin Cameron 2012-02-22 22:18:48 UTC
I ran the restorecon command.  Since it seems to have fixed the problem, I won't worry about it any more.  Please note, however, that I haven't done any restores or other such monkeying-around with my system since I built it in early November '11.

Thanks for the help.
