Description Elio Maldonado Batiz 2013-10-14 17:28:25 UTC
Description of problem:
Updated to the fc20 Beta test candidate using fedup.
Restarted the sytem and let the default grub choce if updating take course.
Once the update was completed I modified the .repo files in /etc/yum.repo so that the updates-testing repo was disabled, keeing fedora.repo and fedora-updated.repo enabled.
Exceuted distro-sync which caused a few downgrades.
Restarted my updated system,
Logging in.
SELinix detected this problem.
SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/certutil from 'write' accesses on the directory /usr/share/pki/ca-trust-source.

*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests   **************************

If you believe that certutil should be allowed write access on the ca-trust-source directory 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 certutil /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

Hi,
Please update selinux-policy packages in your system.

$ audit2allow -i avc 


#============= certwatch_t ==============

#!!!! This avc is allowed in the current policy
allow certwatch_t cert_t:dir write;

$ rpm -q selinux-policy
selinux-policy-3.12.1-90.fc20.noarch
