Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because
the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

What do you mean it does nothing? Don't you see the application boxes on the screen? Thanks.
Okay, after about a day of debugging, I've found the culprit:
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied: An SELinux policy prevents this sender from sending this message to this recipient, 0 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.975" (uid=1000 pid=21904 comm="/usr/lib64/firefox/xulrunner/plugin-container /usr") interface="org.freedesktop.PackageKit" member="CreateTransaction" error name="(unset)" requested_reply="0" destination=":1.977" (uid=0 pid=21912 comm="/usr/libexec/packagekitd ")
This is because the plugin uses DBus to contact PackageKit and ask if the package is installed or available to be installed.
audit2allow seems to suggest:
#============= mozilla_plugin_t ==============
allow mozilla_plugin_t rpm_t:dbus send_msg;
Although, I don't know if this is too large an opening, as I'm guessing mozilla plugins were restricted from this on purpose. Ideas welcome,
Richard
