Description Nicolas Mailhot 2010-12-19 12:40:17 UTC
SELinux is preventing /usr/libexec/telepathy-idle from 'read' accesses on the chr_file urandom.

*****  Plugin catchall_boolean (89.3 confidence) suggests  *******************

If you want to enable reading of urandom for all domains.
Then you must tell SELinux about this by enabling the 'global_ssp' boolean.
Do
setsebool -P global_ssp 1

*****  Plugin catchall (11.6 confidence) suggests  ***************************

If you believe that telepathy-idle should be allowed read access on the urandom chr_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:
# grep /usr/libexec/telepathy-idle /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp
