I am getting this error from the SELinux troubleshooter

 SELinux is preventing rsync (/usr/bin/rsync) "search" to bin (bin_t)


I can fix this easily enough but I want to ask why is rsync searching /bin
as a repository?  Is this a bug in the program or is the default SELinux
configuration wrong for rsync?

Regards,
