Summary SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/prelink (prelink_t) "getattr" to /lib /mapping-fedora (lib_t). Detailed Description SELinux denied access requested by /usr/sbin/prelink. It is not expected that this access is required by /usr/sbin/prelink and this access may signal an intrusion attempt. It is also possible that the specific version or configuration of the application is causing it to require additional access. Allowing Access Sometimes labeling problems can cause SELinux denials. You could try to restore the default system file context for /lib/mapping-fedora, restorecon -v /lib/mapping-fedora If this does not work, there is currently no automatic way to allow this access. Instead, you can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see http://fedora.redhat.com/docs /selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385 Or you can disable SELinux protection altogether. Disabling SELinux protection is not recommended. Please file a http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi against this package.

What the heck is /lib/mapping-fedora and why is it under /lib?
Uh. Actually, good question. I have no idea what it is or why it's there. [root@mithrandir ~]# rpm -qf /lib/mapping-fedora file /lib/mapping-fedora is not owned by any package [root@mithrandir ~]# ls -hl /lib/mapping-fedora srwxrwxr-x 1 caillon caillon 0 2007-03-20 22:38 /lib/mapping-fedora [root@mithrandir ~]# less /lib/mapping-fedora /lib/mapping-fedora is not a regular file (use -f to see it) [root@mithrandir ~]# less -f /lib/mapping-fedora /lib/mapping-fedora: No such device or address
Wonder where that socket came from. Oh well, just removed it. Very strange.
