Description Vadym Chepkov 2009-02-11 14:33:40 UTC 
selinux policy has wrong context for sysstat package

sysstat-7.0.2-1.el5
selinux-policy-targeted-2.4.6-203.el5

I suspect at some moment files were mobved, but policy wasn't updated:

semanage fcontext -l |grep sysstat
/usr/lib(64)?/sa/sadc                              regular file       system_u:object_r:sysstat_exec_t:s0 
/usr/lib(64)?/sysstat/sa.*                         regular file       system_u:object_r:sysstat_exec_t:s0 

but files are actually here:

ls -Z /usr/lib64/sa/sa*
-rwxr-xr-x  root root system_u:object_r:lib_t:s0       /usr/lib64/sa/sa1
-rwxr-xr-x  root root system_u:object_r:lib_t:s0       /usr/lib64/sa/sa2
-rwxr-xr-x  root root system_u:object_r:sysstat_exec_t:s0 /usr/lib64/sa/sadc
