Dear all,

I have set settroubleshoot to allow the following:
chcon -t unconfined_execmem_exec_t
'/usr/lib/firefox-3.0b4pre/firefox'

But it is happening again, I do not understand why I
need to do it multiple of times.  I see a pattern
occuring:  I have filed a bug report against
firefox-b3

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=432198

I hope that firefox and selinux start to work together
and not against each other. :)

Summary:

SELinux is preventing firefox from making the program
stack executable.

Is not necessary. This is probably a plugin or extension that is requesting this and is dangerous. I commented on your bug Antonio.

I saw this same type of thing happening when I had an older flash library in ~/.mozilla (I migrate my home, this was a 2005 .so flash lib that somehow just managed to start getting loaded that I had not been using in years). I cannot find where the discussion of that problem was, I thought it was in bz but don't see it now and removing that old lib was suggested to me.
