Description of problem:
Noticed after upgrade from FC29 to FC30.
SELinux is preventing (ate.cron) from 'execute' accesses on the file /usr/share/spamassassin/sa-update.cron.

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

If you believe that (ate.cron) should be allowed execute access on the sa-update.cron 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:
# ausearch -c '(ate.cron)' --raw | audit2allow -M my-atecron
# semodule -X 300 -i my-atecron.pp

Comment 1 Zdenek Pytela 2019-05-02 14:17:22 UTC 
Hi,

Thank you for reporting the issue. It seems to be a result of the following change:

commit db6263430a37389d0e95add4ec8e86d69cea554f
Author: Lukas Vrabec <lvrabec>
Date:   Thu Dec 6 14:58:28 2018 +0100

    Label /usr/share/spamassassin/sa-update.cron as spamd_update_exec_t

so that a transition rule reflecting that is required, too.
