Description Need Real Name 2007-09-13 17:42:50 EDT

The suggestion to run "chcon -t unconfined_execmem_exec_t X" is wrong. The final
part should contain the full path to the program.

Comment 1 John Dennis 2007-09-15 14:29:50 EDT

I'm going to close this as a dup of bug  244345. There are two issues at play
here. Sometimes the audit system does not return the full path. This is getting
better with new versions of the kernel and audit. Since setroubleshoot relies
exclusively on audit data we're somewhat at the mercy of what kernel/audit
returns. The second issue is that setroubleshoot attempts to compensate for
incomplete information and tries to intuit the path information from other data.

We're in the process of modifying setroubleshoot to not try and intuit the path
information, instead if it's available it will be used, otherwise it will
clearly indicate the information was absent, and not give partial information.
