Description QFanatic 2010-01-30 20:46:43 UTC
Summary:

SELinux is preventing polkit-gnome-ma (xdm_t) "execute" polkit_grant_exec_t.

Detailed Description:

SELinux denied access requested by polkit-gnome-ma. It is not expected that this
access is required by polkit-gnome-ma 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) Or you can disable
SELinux protection altogether. Disabling SELinux protection is not recommended.
Please file a bug report (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi)
against this package.
