+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1316514 +++

Description of problem:
SELinux is preventing colord from 'read' accesses on the file /etc/udev/hwdb.bin.

*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests   **************************

If you believe that colord should be allowed read access on the hwdb.bin file by default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# grep colord /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

SELinux alerts are still being triggered during a live session using Fedora 24 Workstation Live Alpha 6 media including selinux-policy-targeted-3.13.1-179.fc24.

Booted F24 Alpha candidate 7 (Alpha-1.7) Workstation x86_64 live on bare metal (some yum-cha RCA TV as the monitor, Intel graphics adapter). Denial was visible as soon as I reached the desktop, along with a gnome-settings-daemon crash.

Proposing as a Final blocker: "There must be no SELinux denial notifications or crash notifications on boot of or during installation from a release-blocking live image, or at first login after a default install of a release-blocking desktop."

+1 Blocker. Should be no AVCs in released product.

--- Additional comment from Kamil Páral on 2016-03-29 13:24:49 EDT ---

Discussed at today's blocker review meeting [1]. Voted as AcceptedBlocker (Final) - clear violation of "There must be no SELinux denial notifications or crash notifications on boot of or during installation from a release-blocking live image, or at first login after a default install of a release-blocking desktop."
