Description of problem:
hostnamectl set-hostname fedora19.hunter.org
SELinux is preventing /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-hostnamed from 'unlink' accesses on the file hostname.

*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests  ***************************

If you believe that systemd-hostnamed should be allowed unlink access on the hostname 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 systemd-hostnam /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

Comment 1 Miroslav Grepl 2013-04-05 15:43:23 UTC
/etc/hostname is mislabeled. 

IF you run 

# restorecon -R -v /etc/hostname

are you able to reproduce it this issue then?

Comment 2 Dean Hunter 2013-04-05 22:04:44 UTC
???

Today, after I rebuilt the Fedora 19 VM, there is no error and the file "/etc/hostname" starts with the correct type:

[root@fedora19 ~]# ls -lZ /etc/hostname
-rw-r--r--. root root system_u:object_r:etc_runtime_t:s0 /etc/hostname
