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.

Comment 1 Zdenek Pytela 2022-07-07 13:39:28 UTC 
Jelle,

The gpg files and directory seem to have incorrect context. Do you know how they were created, and with which packages versions in place?
Comment 2 Pino Toscano 2022-07-07 16:35:02 UTC 
Hi Jelle,

this looks to me that bug 2077778 should be the actual root cause of this issue.
Comment 3 Jelle van der Waa 2022-07-08 07:15:45 UTC

From what I understood from Pino Toscano cockpit runs insights-client which might explain the incorrect context.
Comment 4 Martin Pitt 2022-07-15 07:38:05 UTC 
This now also affects RHEL 9.1.
Comment 5 Pino Toscano 2022-07-15 08:04:49 UTC 
(In reply to Martin Pitt from comment #4)
> This now also affects RHEL 9.1.

Most likely this is bug 2077777.
Comment 6 mabezerr 2022-07-15 12:51:19 UTC 
Just to register here, we have following BZ for RHEL9:

Bug 2107363 - [RHEL9] insights-client raises SELinux issues (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2107363)
Comment 7 John 2022-07-28 06:28:38 UTC 
Disgraceful.
Comment 9 Zdenek Pytela 2022-07-28 12:36:39 UTC 
Jelle,

Do you still see a similar issue with the latest selinux-policy build?
Comment 12 Jelle van der Waa 2022-08-03 08:50:06 UTC 
All info was provided in comment #10. Clearing out 'needs info'.
Comment 22 Marius Vollmer 2022-09-05 11:10:08 UTC
