Messages like this are added to the audit log when an rpm is installed:
type=SOFTWARE_UPDATE msg=audit(1560913896.581:244): pid=1265 uid=0 auid=4294967295 ses=4294967295 subj=system_u:system_r:rpm_t:s0 msg='sw="ntpdate-4.2.6p5-25.el7_3.2.x86_64" sw_type=rpm key_enforce=0 gpg_res=0 root_dir="/" comm="rpm" exe="/usr/bin/rpm" hostname=? addr=? terminal=? res=success'
These are the denials that I'm seeing:
