Description of problem: I invoked `run0 journalctl -t systemd -g failed | grep -i polkit`, per https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/run0-return-s-ed-failed-to-start-transient-service-unit-access-denied/177866/17. SELinux is preventing (urnalctl) from 'entrypoint' accesses on the file /usr/bin/journalctl. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that (urnalctl) should be allowed entrypoint access on the journalctl file by default. Then you should report this as a bug. You can generate a local policy module to allow this access. Do allow this access for now by executing: # ausearch -c '(urnalctl)' --raw | audit2allow -M my-urnalctl # semodule -X 300 -i my-urnalctl.pp Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0- s0:c0.c1023 Target Context system_u:object_r:journalctl_exec_t:s0 Target Objects /usr/bin/journalctl [ file ] Source (urnalctl) Source Path (urnalctl) Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages systemd-258.3-2.fc43.x86_64 SELinux Policy RPM selinux-policy-targeted-42.19-1.fc43.noarch Local Policy RPM selinux-policy-targeted-42.19-1.fc43.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 6.17.12-300.fc43.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Sat Dec 13 05:06:24 UTC 2025 x86_64 Alert Count 1 First Seen 2025-12-23 17:02:55 GMT Last Seen 2025-12-23 17:02:55 GMT Local ID a85b4f2d-c69f-40d0-9847-0b5f3c471d86 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1766509375.111:298): avc: denied { entrypoint } for pid=4823 comm="(urnalctl)" path="/usr/bin/journalctl" dev="dm-0" ino=8354576 scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:journalctl_exec_t:s0 tclass=file permissive=0 Hash: (urnalctl),unconfined_t,journalctl_exec_t,file,entrypoint Version-Release number of selected component: selinux-policy-targeted-42.19-1.fc43.noarch Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.17.15 reason: SELinux is preventing (urnalctl) from 'entrypoint' accesses on the file /usr/bin/journalctl. package: selinux-policy-targeted-42.19-1.fc43.noarch component: selinux-policy hashmarkername: setroubleshoot type: libreport kernel: 6.17.12-300.fc43.x86_64 event_log: 2025-12-23-17:04:57> Looking for similar problems in bugzilla comment: I invoked `run0 journalctl -t systemd -g failed | grep -i polkit`, per https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/run0-return-s-ed-failed-to-start-transient-service-unit-access-denied/177866/17. component: selinux-policy
