:SELinux is preventing /usr/libexec/kde4/kcmdatetimehelper from 'unlink' accesses on the file /etc/localtime.
:
:*****  Plugin restorecon (94.8 confidence) suggests  *************************
:
:If you want to fix the label. 
:/etc/localtime default label should be locale_t.
:Then you can run restorecon.
:Do
:# /sbin/restorecon -v /etc/localtime
:
:*****  Plugin catchall_labels (5.21 confidence) suggests  ********************
:
:If you want to allow kcmdatetimehelper to have unlink access on the localtime file
:Then you need to change the label on /etc/localtime
:Do
:# semanage fcontext -a -t FILE_TYPE '/etc/localtime'
:where FILE_TYPE is one of the following: locale_t, config_usr_t, root_t. 
:Then execute: 
:restorecon -v '/etc/localtime'
:
:
:*****  Plugin catchall (1.44 confidence) suggests  ***************************
:
:If you believe that kcmdatetimehelper should be allowed unlink access on the localtime 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 kcmdatetimehelp /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
:# semodule -i mypol.pp

Comment 3 Daniel Walsh 2012-12-11 19:32:10 UTC
Run the restorecon command mentioned in the alert.

I think this is fully fixed in F18.  I am not sure how the file gets mislabeled.

restorecon /etc/localtime

Comment 4 Miroslav Grepl 2012-12-12 08:39:06 UTC
Strange,
it should be also in F17.

Just execute the restorecon command how Dan suggested and reopen if you see it again. Thank you.
