which temporarily solves the problem but it would be better if it were policy and not file contexts. So I search and see for some reason, /var/clamav is ignored...
Is there something I don't understand or does this need to be bugzilla'd? Upstream?
No, rpmforge. They package clamd to use /var/clamav and not /var/lib/clamav. There already have been discussions on their list in the last month/this months. See lists.rpmforge.net.
---- yeah, I'm even on that list too...
I was thinking that since /etc/selinux/.../file_contexts was part of the distribution, and it already contained all but one context for the various clam packages, that amendments to that file would come from upstream. ;-(
As for the rpmforge list, there was a request to use a modified spec file to generate rpm's for clamav for this very same problem but it isn't getting done.
I suppose if nothing else, someone who searches the CentOS list will have the appropriate command to clean it up each time a new clamav is released...
chcon -t clamd_t /var/clamav -R
Thanks
