Description Germano Massullo 2012-02-28 17:29:03 UTC
Description of problem:
I was changing Amarok priority in ksysguard, when I got the following SELinux error:




SELinux is preventing /usr/libexec/kde4/ksysguardprocesslist_helper from write access on the cartella /.config.

***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggerisce****************************

Seyou believe that ksysguardprocesslist_helper should be allowed write access on the .config directory by default.
Quindiyou should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Fai
allow this access for now by executing:
# grep ksysguardproces /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

This is just kde acting stupid.  It thinks your homedir is /.  Please remove /.config and the problem will go away I believe.

Comment 2 Miroslav Grepl 2012-02-29 10:28:19 UTC
There are bugs for this on KDE. I hope they will fix it.
