The suggestion for one of the comments of using `/run/fail2ban(/.*)?`
instead of `/run/fail2ban.*` doesn't work?
I try to be very careful with making changes in SELinux and I don't know
what the difference is between those two statements.
ChatGPT had the following to say:
In SELinux, these two statements represent regular expressions used in
file context definitions. Let's break down each one:
1. `/run/fail2ban(/.*)?`:
- This regular expression matches paths that start with
`/run/fail2ban/` followed by zero or more characters (`.*`) and
optionally followed by a forward slash and zero or more characters
(`(/.*)?`). Essentially, it matches paths like `/run/fail2ban`,
`/run/fail2ban/`, and any subdirectories and files within `/run/fail2ban`.
2. `/run/fail2ban.*`:
- This regular expression matches paths that start with
`/run/fail2ban` followed by zero or more characters (`.*`). It doesn't
specify any specific structure beyond `/run/fail2ban`, so it matches
paths like `/run/fail2ban`, `/run/fail2ban.log`,
`/run/fail2ban/somefile`, etc. It doesn't specifically include
subdirectories like the previous expression.
In summary, the first expression is more specific, including
subdirectories under `/run/fail2ban`, while the second expression is
more general, matching any path that starts with `/run/fail2ban`.

It doesn't look like it would make a difference for the specific issue...
No one pasted the exact error message, but given that the socket is
created but has the wrong label means that this change is correct. You
want version 1.
