Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
selinux-policy-2.6.1-1
selinux-policy-targeted-2.6.1-1

How reproducible:
Everytime, just start setroubleshoot.

Actual results:
AVC denied message, setroubleshoot is exiting...

Expected results:

Comment 2 Daniel Walsh 2007-05-04 13:35:23 UTC
How did you get this to happen?  

Comment 3 Robert Scheck 2007-05-04 13:53:01 UTC
I'm just starting setroubleshootd and waiting some time until it kills itself.

Comment 4 Daniel Walsh 2007-05-04 14:41:50 UTC
Fixed in selinux-policy-2.6.3-1.fc7

Comment 5 Robert Scheck 2007-05-04 18:09:14 UTC
Is 2.6.3-1 somewhere available during the merge?

Comment 7 Robert Scheck 2007-05-06 21:27:35 UTC
Daniel, looks like setroubleshootd has problems with signull?!

Comment 8 Robert Scheck 2007-05-27 10:06:46 UTC
NO! This bug is not fixed in selinux-policy-targeted-2.6.4-8:

Comment 9 Robert Scheck 2007-05-30 22:20:22 UTC
Ping?

Comment 10 Robert Scheck 2007-06-10 22:02:18 UTC
I'm assuming this bug isn't also fixed in selinux-policy-targeted-2.6.5-2

Comment 11 Daniel Walsh 2007-06-11 14:34:22 UTC
It should be.

Comment 12 Daniel Walsh 2007-06-11 14:36:07 UTC
selinux-policy-2.6.4-13 definitely has the fix.

Comment 13 Daniel Walsh 2007-08-22 14:13:48 UTC
Should be fixed in the current release
