Description of problem:
SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/NetworkManager from 'unlink' accesses on the file .

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

If you want to allow NetworkManager to have unlink access on the  file
Then you need to change the label on $FIX_TARGET_PATH
Do
# semanage fcontext -a -t FILE_TYPE '$FIX_TARGET_PATH'
where FILE_TYPE is one of the following: NetworkManager_etc_rw_t, NetworkManager_tmp_t, NetworkManager_var_lib_t, NetworkManager_var_run_t, dhcpc_state_t, dhcpc_var_run_t, dnsmasq_var_run_t, hostname_etc_t, named_cache_t, net_conf_t, pppd_var_run_t, systemd_passwd_var_run_t. 
Then execute: 
restorecon -v '$FIX_TARGET_PATH'


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

If you believe that NetworkManager should be allowed unlink access on the  file 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

Comment 1 Miroslav Grepl 2014-07-30 07:08:18 UTC
It looks 

/var/lib/NetworkManager

is mislabeled in your case. Try to execute

# restorecon -R -v /var/lib/NetworkManager

to see if it fixes labeling.
