Wow! So running as root causes error messages? Pull the other leg, it has
bells on it!

And why? Because this was immediately after a clean install to a brand new
drive, while I was still running upgrades and transferring files from
backup. Much easier to do that as root, so that is what I do. If you want to
type sudo a hundred times, go right ahead.

Running as root is not a disaster. Get over it.
Were you logging into the graphical session as root, or logging in as
a normal user and starting a root shell with sudo?  Or were you using
root at the console login instead of the graphical login?

At the time I was logging into the graphical session as root. 'Who' the unauthorized sender is/was is the conundrum. Seems to be related to selinux, since disabling that killed the error message. But why it happened in the first place, I have no idea. And at this point, as someone said, what difference does it make?
