Dan:

As seen from the attachment, it is "pcscd" daemon that is receiving the denial.

Would you have any thoughts on this issue?

thanks,
jack

Funny you should ask,  I spent most of yesterday with my new pcmcia smartcard
reader, crashing kernels and writing policy.  So I have some fixes that will go
into rawhide as soon as the merge allows me to update.

Fixed in selinux-policy-2.6.3-1.fc7


Comment 4 Jack Magne 2007-05-04 17:29:22 UTC
Thank you very much for updating us on this!

Just a question:

1. Would you like for us to give the RPM (when ready) a quick test with our
Smart Cards and present feedback? We'd be happy to grab an RPM if it would be
useful.

thanks again,
jack

Comment 5 Daniel Walsh 2007-05-15 14:41:25 UTC
The policy should be available now.

Comment 6 Bug Zapper 2008-04-04 00:28:40 UTC
Based on the date this bug was created, it appears to have been reported
against rawhide during the development of a Fedora release that is no
longer maintained. In order to refocus our efforts as a project we are
flagging all of the open bugs for releases which are no longer
maintained. If this bug remains in NEEDINFO thirty (30) days from now,
we will automatically close it.

If you can reproduce this bug in a maintained Fedora version (7, 8, or
rawhide), please change this bug to the respective version and change
the status to ASSIGNED. (If you're unable to change the bug's version
or status, add a comment to the bug and someone will change it for you.)

Thanks for your help, and we apologize again that we haven't handled
these issues to this point.

The process we're following is outlined here:

We will be following the process here:

doesn't happen again.

Comment 7 Bug Zapper 2008-05-07 01:38:50 UTC
This bug has been in NEEDINFO for more than 30 days since feedback was
first requested. As a result we are closing it.

If you can reproduce this bug in the future against a maintained Fedora
version please feel free to reopen it against that version.
