:SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/python2.7 from 'write' accesses on the directory /usr/share/system-config-firewall.
:
:*****  Plugin catchall_labels (83.8 confidence) suggests  ********************
:
:If you want to allow python2.7 to have write access on the system-config-firewall directory
:Then you need to change the label on /usr/share/system-config-firewall
:Do
:# semanage fcontext -a -t FILE_TYPE '/usr/share/system-config-firewall'
:where FILE_TYPE is one of the following: firewallgui_tmp_t, sysctl_vm_t, etc_t, tmp_t, system_conf_t, root_t. 
:Then execute: 
:restorecon -v '/usr/share/system-config-firewall'
:
:
:*****  Plugin catchall (17.1 confidence) suggests  ***************************
:
:If you believe that python2.7 should be allowed write access on the system-config-firewall 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 system-config-f /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
:# semodule -i mypol.pp

THis looks like python was trying to write compiled binaries.  Did you edit files in /usr/share/system-config-firewall?

Comment 4 Zdenek Chmelar 2013-01-15 08:11:44 UTC
I was just playing with Firewall that's modified with our company rules and when I try to apply changes, I get this error.
I installed company package for network printer installation yesterday. I guess there was an attempt to write new rules into /usr/share/system-config-firewall/ and it failed.
Herewith the problem is on my site and not on yours. I will fix it with creation of local rules on my system.
If you have nothing against, I propose to close this ticket.

Thanks for your time and effort!
Zdenek
