Description Slawomir Czarko 2012-01-17 16:02:47 UTC
SELinux is preventing /bin/systemd-tmpfiles from 'read' accesses on the directory yum-root-UhxXB1.

*****  Plugin catchall_labels (83.8 confidence) suggests  ********************

If you want to allow systemd-tmpfiles to have read access on the yum-root-UhxXB1 directory
Then you need to change the label on yum-root-UhxXB1
Do
# semanage fcontext -a -t FILE_TYPE 'yum-root-UhxXB1'
where FILE_TYPE is one of the following: rpm_var_lib_t, net_conf_t, home_root_t, var_run_t, cert_t, man_t, user_home_dir_t, tmp_t, filesystem_type, device_t, locale_t, var_auth_t, etc_t, file_t, tmpfs_t, lockfile, pidfile, tmpfile, sysctl_crypto_t, lost_found_t, abrt_t, lib_t, root_t, usr_t, systemd_tmpfiles_t, httpd_cache_t, sandbox_file_t, device_t, etc_t, user_home_type, rpm_var_cache_t, faillog_t, textrel_shlib_t, proc_net_t, net_conf_t, nscd_var_run_t, cert_t, var_lib_t. 
Then execute: 
restorecon -v 'yum-root-UhxXB1'


*****  Plugin catchall (17.1 confidence) suggests  ***************************

If you believe that systemd-tmpfiles should be allowed read access on the yum-root-UhxXB1 directory 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 systemd-tmpfile /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

Comment 1 Slawomir Czarko 2012-01-17 16:08:18 UTC
yum-root-UhxXB1 is a directory under /var/tmp. It was created automatically by some process.

Comment 2 Daniel Walsh 2012-01-17 16:29:49 UTC
It looks like it was created in /mnt or /media and mv'd to /tmp?

Comment 3 Slawomir Czarko 2012-01-17 16:37:37 UTC
I don't know how this got created. I deleted 20-30 directories named "yum-root-*" and "yum-<username>-*" from /var/tmp/ a few days ago and today I can see another two there.

Comment 4 Daniel Walsh 2012-01-17 16:50:04 UTC
And how are they labeled?  Are you using livecd?

Comment 5 Slawomir Czarko 2012-01-17 17:09:51 UTC
label is unconfined_u:object_r:mnt_t:s0

No, I'm not using livecd. Fedora 15 is installed on the hard disk.

Comment 6 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-07 17:21:17 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no
longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that
version of Fedora.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:
