Try something more along the lines of: while app-fails-to-run do note failing library filename chcon -t textrel_shlib_t /path/to/libXYZ.so.number done That should just fix the libraries that need fixing. Make a note of any libraries that you need to do this for, as it could help other people if you posted the list is response to queries by other people, or indeed to bugzilla. As a matter of interest, a lot of libraries need this treatment; you can see the ones SELinux already knows about as follows: # semanage fcontext -l | grep textrel The first column of output is a regex matching full pathnames. Also note that changes to context using "chcon" may get reverted if the system is relabelled. Setting new defaults for the necessary files using semanage stops this happening. Paul.
