dmesg has given lots of audit entries,
avc: denied {read}
denied open and syslog reads etc too. Bot if I repeatedly run dmesg I don't
get new entries appearing.
/var/log/messages is empty
journalctl shows lots of
systemd: 'cannot add depenency job for unit......' and
kernel: type=1400 audit avc: denied
the denied entries are for getattr, execute, read, open, execute_no_trans, and
setrlimit
