Description Walt 2011-01-20 19:11:13 UTC
Summary:

SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/pinentry-qt4 "write" access on config.

Detailed Description:

SELinux denied access requested by pinentry-qt. It is not expected that this
access is required by pinentry-qt 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://docs.fedoraproject.org/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Please file a bug
report.

audit2allow suggests:

#============= gpg_pinentry_t ==============
#!!!! The source type 'gpg_pinentry_t' can write to a 'dir' of the following types:
# user_fonts_cache_t, user_tmp_t, gpg_pinentry_tmpfs_t, gpg_pinentry_tmp_t, tmpfs_t

allow gpg_pinentry_t user_home_t:dir write;

Do you know where the config directory is located in your homedir?
