Comment 1 Fedora Blocker Bugs Application 2015-11-21 09:38:25 UTC 
Proposed as a Blocker for 24-final by Fedora user juliuxpigface using the blocker tracking app because:

 Since SELinux Alarms Browser is part of the standard sets of Fedora Workstation's apps, this bug breaks the "2.4.6 Default application functionality" Final Criteria.

"All applications that can be launched using the standard graphical mechanism of a release-blocking desktop after a default installation of that desktop must start successfully and withstand a basic functionality test."

Comment 2 Petr Schindler 2015-11-23 17:44:49 UTC 
Discussed at 2015-11-23 blocker review meeting: [1]. 

This bug was accepted as F24 Final blocker: This bug clearly violates the final criterion "All applications that can be launched using the standard graphical mechanism of a release-blocking desktop after a default installation of that desktop must start successfully and withstand a basic functionality test."

Comment 3 Petr Lautrbach 2015-11-23 18:16:06 UTC 
Is this report still valid? I've just tried on current Rawhide and sealert works as expected.

I've just updated my Rawhide and I confirm the behavior described in comment #1.

By the way, I forgot to mention that I'm testing with qemu-kvm (if this detail might be useful).
Comment 5 Vít Ondruch 2015-11-24 11:15:11 UTC 
I can reproduce this as well:

$ sealert
ERROR:dbus.proxies:Introspect error on :1.317:/org/fedoraproject/Setroubleshootd: dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Message recipient disconnected from message bus without replying
could not attach to desktop process

and I can see this in my log:

Please note this is using Wayland session. Not sure if that can make a difference
Comment 6 Miroslav Grepl 2015-11-24 12:48:36 UTC 
Vit,
what does

rpm -q setroubleshoot

show?
Comment 7 Vít Ondruch 2015-11-24 13:54:56 UTC 
$ rpm -q setroubleshoot
setroubleshoot-3.3.1-0.3.fc24.x86_64
Comment 8 Adam Williamson 2015-12-05 00:43:22 UTC 
I'm still seeing this here today, on X (not Wayland), with setroubleshoot-3.3.1-0.4.fc24.x86_64 .
Comment 9 Joachim Frieben 2015-12-06 01:24:53 UTC 
Sealert starts up and works as expected in SELinux permissive mode after booting with kernel option "enforcing=0". It is thus rather a problem with package selinux-policy-targeted-3.13.1-161.fc24, and the component should be changed accordingly.
Comment 10 Jan Kurik 2016-02-24 13:54:42 UTC 
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 24 development cycle.
Changing version to '24'.

More information and reason for this action is here:

Comment 11 Petr Schindler 2016-03-04 06:54:51 UTC 
I can run sealert with current packages on f24 even with enforcing.
setroubleshoot-3.3.4-1.fc24.x86_64
selinux-policy-3.13.1-175.fc25.noarch
selinux-policy-targeted-3.13.1-175.fc25.noarch

Does this problem still occur to someone?
Comment 12 Adam Williamson 2016-03-04 07:23:52 UTC 
yeah, it's OK for me too now.
Comment 13 Vít Ondruch 2016-03-04 09:51:23 UTC 
Works for me as well.

$ rpm -q setroubleshoot
setroubleshoot-3.3.4-1.fc24.x86_64
