Description of problem:
Happened on boot
SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/gnome-shell from 'search' accesses on the directory .

*****  Plugin catchall_labels (83.8 confidence) suggests   *******************

If you want to allow gnome-shell to have search access on the  directory
Then you need to change the label on $FIX_TARGET_PATH
Do
# semanage fcontext -a -t FILE_TYPE '$FIX_TARGET_PATH'

*****  Plugin catchall (17.1 confidence) suggests   **************************

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

Comment 1 Miroslav Grepl 2014-07-28 06:28:16 UTC
Where is sublime_text located? Did you try to add a label for it?

Comment 2 Daniel Walsh 2014-07-28 12:20:43 UTC
unlabeled_t means you got a file onto your system either without a label or with a label the kernel does not understand.  If you run restorecon on the file it will add a proper label.

Comment 3 Steven Citron-Pousty 2014-09-02 16:59:09 UTC
This a stock Fedora install and I don't have sublime text installed. I reported this bug because I think SELinux should have given this permission by default.

Comment 4 Daniel Walsh 2014-09-03 10:22:40 UTC
find / -name sublime_text

Comment 5 Fedora End Of Life 2015-05-29 12:29:02 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 20 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 20. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '20'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 20 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 6 Fedora End Of Life 2015-06-29 21:46:55 UTC
Fedora 20 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-06-23. Fedora 20 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.

Comment 7 Red Hat Bugzilla 2023-09-14 02:12:06 UTC
The needinfo request[s] on this closed bug have been removed as they have been unresolved for 1000 days
