:SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/python from 'setattr' accesses on the file /etc/dhcp/wireless-settings.conf.
:
:*****  Plugin catchall_labels (83.8 confidence) suggests  ********************
:
:If you want to allow python to have setattr access on the wireless-settings.conf file
:Then you need to change the label on /etc/dhcp/wireless-settings.conf
:Do
:# semanage fcontext -a -t FILE_TYPE '/etc/dhcp/wireless-settings.conf'
:where FILE_TYPE is one of the following: NetworkManager_var_lib_t, NetworkManager_var_run_t, net_conf_t, pppd_var_run_t, named_cache_t, NetworkManager_etc_rw_t, NetworkManager_tmp_t, NetworkManager_log_t, root_t. 
:Then execute: 
:restorecon -v '/etc/dhcp/wireless-settings.conf'
:
:
:*****  Plugin catchall (17.1 confidence) suggests  ***************************
:
:If you believe that python should be allowed setattr access on the wireless-settings.conf 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 wicd /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
:# semodule -i mypol.pp
