Description Luya Tshimbalanga 2021-05-22 05:27:41 UTC 
Description of problem:
On logging session
SELinux is preventing gdb from 'read' accesses on the file /var/cache/fwupd/metainfo.xmlb.

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

If you believe that gdb should be allowed read access on the metainfo.xmlb 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 'gdb' --raw | audit2allow -M my-gdb
# semodule -X 300 -i my-gdb.pp
