After installing hplip-gui, I got selinux errors when checking on the

audit2allow generated the following policy

xdm is checking the printer status? This allow rule indicates the X
Login program is checking the printer status. Could you attach the AVC's
you used to generate this policy.


And here's another one related to hplip

Could you report this as a bug to cups. Cups has some MLS aware ness in it and maybe it is reading this file directly rather then through libselinux.  CC me on the bug report dwalsh@xxxxxxxxxx


Just a "me too" here. I've got two separate issues, one has to do with this thread. Just after installing F11 everything seemed fine. I poked the necessary holes in my firewall and shared my printer queues and my wife could print from her F10 laptop. Now it seems just about every job gets "stuck" and I see the AVC denials about python. Here's the details for mine (just in case anything is different:

Summary:

SELinux is preventing python (hplip_t) "read" security_t.

Detailed Description:

[SELinux is in permissive mode, the operation would have been denied but was
permitted due to permissive mode.]

SELinux denied access requested by python. It is not expected that this access
is required by python and this access may signal an intrusion attempt. It is
also possible that the specific version or configuration of the application is
causing it to require additional access.

Allowing Access:

You can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ
(http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Or you can disable
SELinux protection altogether. Disabling SELinux protection is not recommended.
Please file a bug report (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi)
against this package.
