The following was filed automatically by setroubleshoot: Summary: SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/procmail "module_request" access. Detailed Description: SELinux denied access requested by procmail. It is not expected that this access is required by procmail and this access may signal an intrusion attempt. It is also possible that the specific version or configuration of the application is causing it to require additional access. Allowing Access: You can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ (http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Please file a bug report.

Did you do something funny to try to stop IPV6 from running?
no, nothing extra funny :) I've just use this in my after-install script: cat >/etc/modprobe.d/ipv6_blacklist.conf <<EOF blacklist ipv6 install ipv6 /bin/true EOF AFAIK this is official way how to disable ipv6. You can find this many times with google. It just disables ipv6 module from auto-loading and prevents ipv6 module from loading even if it is explicitly requested.
It might be, but it does not work. Since this is just causing other apps to ask the kernel to load the ipv6 kernel modules.
Eric can explain what is going on here.
