:SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/updatedb from 'search' accesses on the directory /var/cache/jockey.
:
:*****  Plugin restorecon (94.8 confidence) suggests  *************************
:
:If you want to fix the label. 
:/var/cache/jockey default label should be var_t.
:Then you can run restorecon.
:Do
:# /sbin/restorecon -v /var/cache/jockey
:
:*****  Plugin catchall_labels (5.21 confidence) suggests  ********************
:
:If you want to allow updatedb to have search access on the jockey directory
:Then you need to change the label on /var/cache/jockey
:Do
:# semanage fcontext -a -t FILE_TYPE '/var/cache/jockey'
:where FILE_TYPE is one of the following: locate_var_lib_t, var_run_t, file_type, abrt_var_run_t, sysctl_crypto_t, inotifyfs_t, var_lib_t, var_run_t, samba_var_t, anon_inodefs_t, samba_etc_t, avahi_var_run_t, nscd_var_run_t, nslcd_var_run_t, smbd_var_run_t, sssd_var_lib_t, net_conf_t, setrans_var_run_t, cfengine_var_lib_t, device_t, etc_t, sysctl_t, noxattrfs, abrt_t, bin_t, proc_t, sysfs_t, lib_t, mnt_t, filesystem_type, device_t, locale_t, locate_t, root_t, tmp_t, usr_t, var_t, etc_t, bin_t, proc_t, cpu_online_t, winbind_var_run_t, usr_t, cfengine_var_lib_t, tmp_t, var_t, etc_t, cert_t, var_t, textrel_shlib_t, sssd_public_t, rpm_script_tmp_t, security_t, likewise_var_lib_t, default_t, rpm_log_t, krb5_conf_t, var_log_t, var_run_t, abrt_var_run_t, var_run_t, var_run_t, nscd_var_run_t, pcscd_var_run_t, krb5_host_rcache_t, var_t, var_t. 
:Then execute: 
:restorecon -v '/var/cache/jockey'
:
:
:*****  Plugin catchall (1.44 confidence) suggests  ***************************
:
:If you believe that updatedb should be allowed search access on the jockey 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 updatedb /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
:# semodule -i mypol.pp

Comment 5 Fedora End Of Life 2013-07-04 00:54:56 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 17. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '17'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life.

Bug Reporter:  Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 17 is 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  change the 
'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life.

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.
