Summary SELinux is preventing the /mnt/test/sbin/ldconfig from using potentially mislabeled files (ld-linux.so.2). Detailed Description SELinux has denied /mnt/test/sbin/ldconfig access to potentially mislabeled file(s) (ld-linux.so.2). This means that SELinux will not allow /mnt/test/sbin/ldconfig to use these files. It is common for users to edit files in their home directory or tmp directories and then move (mv) them to system directories. The problem is that the files end up with the wrong file context which confined applications are not allowed to access. Allowing Access If you want /mnt/test/sbin/ldconfig to access this files, you need to relabel them using restorecon -v ld-linux.so.2. You might want to relabel the entire directory using restorecon -R -v .
