Description of problem: It think this is triggered by atril-thumbnailer trying the make thumbnail for a dvi file. SELinux is preventing atril-thumbnail from 'append' accesses on the file missfont.log. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that atril-thumbnail should be allowed append access on the missfont.log 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: # ausearch -c 'atril-thumbnail' --raw | audit2allow -M my-atrilthumbnail # semodule -X 300 -i my-atrilthumbnail.pp Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:unconfined_r:thumb_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Context unconfined_u:object_r:home_root_t:s0 Target Objects missfont.log [ file ] Source atril-thumbnail Source Path atril-thumbnail Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.13.1-225.6.fc25.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 4.9.7-201.fc25.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Feb 2 23:32:42 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 170 First Seen 2017-01-23 16:45:16 GMT Last Seen 2017-02-10 14:16:12 GMT Local ID 2792ec7f-7b0d-4297-b01c-68bf99f1b952 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1486736172.599:1206): avc: denied { append } for pid=25976 comm="atril-thumbnail" name="missfont.log" dev="dm-0" ino=1257 scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:thumb_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:home_root_t:s0 tclass=file permissive=0 Hash: atril-thumbnail,thumb_t,home_root_t,file,append Version-Release number of selected component: selinux-policy-3.13.1-225.6.fc25.noarch Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.8.0 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 4.9.7-201.fc25.x86_64 type: libreport
This looks like you have a labeling issue on your homedir. home_root_t is the label of /home. thumbnails are probably writing in a place like /home/dwalsh which should be labeled differently. restorecon -R -V /home First to see if this solves your issues.
Seems like every folder in home needed relabelling: restorecon reset /home/sam context unconfined_u:object_r:home_root_t:s0->unconfined_u:object_r:user_home_dir_t:s0 ... Would this have been from installing F25, and then copying a F23 home folder across from a backup drive? Should this also fix my Bug 1411293 ?
Yes depending on how you copied it back. But you should always relabel a directory that you restore. Please reopen this bug if it happens again.
