Comment 5 Miroslav Grepl 2014-01-19 20:03:19 UTC
How did you get it? By default or did you change the labeling?

Comment 6 Mateusz Marzantowicz 2014-01-19 20:59:04 UTC
I followd instructions from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1054350 to update my system. I did setenforce 0 and dnf distro-sync. Just after upgrade finished I was floded by selinux alerts (I think two per vm).

Here is my dnf history (what I did).

Comment 7 Miroslav Grepl 2014-01-20 08:08:15 UTC
Could you try to turn off/on running virtual machines?

Comment 8 Mateusz Marzantowicz 2014-01-20 09:34:47 UTC
I relabeled FS on boot yesterday and now I can't reproduce this behavior. I started/stopped virtual machines many time since then with SELinux in Permissive and Enforcing modes. It must have been some update side effect. I can try to downgrade and upgrade selinux-policy-targeted again to see I can trigger this error again.

Comment 9 Mateusz Marzantowicz 2014-01-20 09:39:06 UTC
To clarify things - I haven't modified anything in SELinux policy by myself. I'm only using policies contained in RPM.

Comment 10 Miroslav Grepl 2014-01-20 10:32:02 UTC
Ok, lets close this bug for now and please reopen if this happens again. Thank you.
