yum update
… Updating:
VirtualBox-4.3 x86_64 4.3.16_95972_el7-1 virtualbox 69 M
flash-plugin x86_64 11.2.202.406-release adobe-linux-x86_64 6.9 M
libcacard x86_64 10:1.5.3-60.el7_0.7.0.1 updates 182 k qemu-guest-agent x86_64 10:1.5.3-60.el7_0.7.0.1 updates 247 k

While this update is running I get a SELinux Alert window, with this content:

ldconfig write N/A 12 Notify ldconfig read N/A 13 Notify ldconfig write N/A 14 Notify

The numbers in the fourth column keep changing.

What does this mean? Is there a problem that I should be solving?

  • I bet this has to do with troubleshootd (is it there in CentOS? I’m not sure but in Fedora 19 it was there).

    Contents of /var/log/audit/audit.log will be more interesting.

  • I bet this has to do with the flash-plugin and virtual box as they most likely don’t get installed in an selinux compatible fashion.

    With standard EL7 components and selinux enabled I didn’t have any warnings during yum update so far.

    True

    kind regards
