Description Casey Dahlin 2013-07-02 20:42:49 UTC
Description of problem:
Using screen normally. Didn't correlate it to any particular action.
SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/screen from using the 'sigchld' accesses on a process.

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

If you believe that screen should be allowed sigchld access on processes labeled staff_screen_t 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 screen /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp
