Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.

RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Zdenek Pytela 2018-07-25 16:49:07 UTC

Description of problem:
During update of selinux-policy-targeted, the following error message appears:
Re-declaration of type entropyd_t

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
selinux-policy-targeted-3.13.1-192.el7_5.4.noarch

How reproducible:
always when updating from RHEL 6

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Update RHEL 6 to RHEL 7

Actual results:
  Updating   : selinux-policy-targeted-3.13.1-192.el7_5.3.noarch                           27/117
?/etc/selinux/targeted/modules/active/file_contexts.local? -> ?/etc/selinux/targeted/active/file_contexts.local?
?/etc/selinux/targeted/modules/active/seusers? -> ?/etc/selinux/targeted/active/seusers.local?
Re-declaration of type entropyd_t
Failed to create node
Bad type declaration at /etc/selinux/targeted/tmp/modules/100/entropyd/cil:1
semodule:  Failed!


Expected results:
<no error>

Additional info:
On the same system, reinstalling/updating the package later:
yum reinstall selinux-policy-targeted -y
triggers the same error.

There is a known resolution based on a knowledgebase article suggesting removing /etc/selinux/targeted/modules/active/modules/audioentropy.pp and possibly other modules.
