Description of problem:
SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/NetworkManager from 'search' accesses on the directory ppp.

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

If you believe that NetworkManager should be allowed search access on the ppp 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 NetworkManager /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

I get this error bash: ligne1: selinux-policy-3.12.1-74.11.fc19 : commande introuvable 

I get asked if I want to install some packages. it keeps installing until I get that.  btw "commande introuvable" means something like command not found.
