Description of problem:
SELinux is preventing /usr/lib64/nspluginwrapper/plugin-config from read, write access on the chr_file /dev/ptmx.

*****  Plugin leaks (86.2 confidence) suggests  ******************************

If you want to ignore plugin-config trying to read write access the ptmx chr_file, because you believe it should not need this access.
Then you should report this as a bug.  
You can generate a local policy module to dontaudit this access.
Do
# grep /usr/lib64/nspluginwrapper/plugin-config /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -D -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

*****  Plugin catchall (14.7 confidence) suggests  ***************************

If you believe that plugin-config should be allowed read write access on the ptmx chr_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 plugin-config /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp
