It's happening on every start up when I log in .

Comment 3 Daniel Walsh 2014-07-15 22:44:13 UTC

THis is showing a file without a label.  It looks like the jones directory has no labels.  Probably was added from a system without SELinux.

You can simply add labels by running 

restorecon -R -v /home
