Create a local policy module either via audit2allow or by hand to permit
it. The rule in particular that is missing is "role system_r types
spamc_t;".
The audit2allow way:
# grep spamc /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M myspamc
# semodule -i myspamc.pp
The hand-written way:
# cat myspamc.te
policy_module(myspamc, 1.0)
require {
role system_r;
type spamc_t;
}
role system_r types spamc_t;
# make -f /usr/share/selinux/devel/Makefile myspamc.pp
# semodule -i myspamc.pp
