Package: selinux-policy-default X-Debbugs-Cc: cliffjki...@gmail.com Version: 2:2.20221101-9 Severity: minor Tags:
Dear Maintainer, dbus fails to start after installing SELinux. The error indicates that it expects a file in /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/dbus_contexts The package selinux-policy-default does not include the targeted/ subpath. OBSERVED RESULT There is no file in /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/dbus_contexts EXPECTED RESULT https://sources.debian.org/src/linux/3.16.36-1%2Bdeb8u2~bpo70%2B1/scripts/selinux/mdp/dbus_contexts/ Should exist in /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/dbus_contexts after installing either selinux-policy-default or one of the other selinux packages, if you don't believe it belongs in selinux-policy-default SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux: Debian 6.1.124-1 checkpolicy/stable,now 3.4-1+b2 amd64 [installed,automatic] libselinux1/stable,now 3.4-1+b6 amd64 [installed] libselinux1-dev/stable,now 3.4-1+b6 amd64 [installed,automatic] libsemanage-common/stable,stable,now 3.4-1 all [installed] libsemanage2/stable,now 3.4-1+b5 amd64 [installed] libsepol-dev/stable,now 3.4-2.1 amd64 [installed,automatic] libsepol2/stable,now 3.4-2.1 amd64 [installed] policycoreutils/stable,now 3.4-1 amd64 [installed,automatic] policycoreutils-dbus/stable,stable,now 3.4-1 all [installed] policycoreutils-dev/stable,now 3.4-1+b2 amd64 [installed,automatic] policycoreutils-python-utils/stable,stable,now 3.4-1 all [installed,automatic] python3-selinux/stable,now 3.4-1+b6 amd64 [installed,automatic] python3-semanage/stable,now 3.4-1+b5 amd64 [installed,automatic] python3-sepolgen/stable,stable,now 3.4-1 all [installed,automatic] python3-sepolicy/stable,stable,now 3.4-1 all [installed,automatic] python3-setools/stable,now 4.4.1-2 amd64 [installed,automatic] selinux-basics/stable,stable,now 0.5.8 all [installed] selinux-policy-default/stable,stable,now 2:2.20221101-9 all [installed] selinux-policy-dev/stable,stable,now 2:2.20221101-9 all [installed,automatic] selinux-utils/stable,now 3.4-1+b6 amd64 [installed] semanage-utils/stable,stable,now 3.4-1 all [installed] semodule-utils/stable,now 3.4-1 amd64 [installed] setools/stable,now 4.4.1-2 amd64 [installed,automatic] ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Workaround available. Creating a file at /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/dbus_contexts with the minimum content of: <busconfig> <selinux> </selinux> </busconfig> Allows dbus to start. Setting SELinux into permissive or enforcing=0 does not workaround the problem. dbus will look for the file if SELinux is loaded.
