RE: No AVCs written to /var/log/messages

I just used the command

dmesg | grep -i avc

There were 2 errors generated when I used the command; these AVC errors were
written to the console and in the dmesg output.  These were the only AVCs
recorded in the dmesg output.  The few errors that I would see during system
initialization are not in the dmesg output.

Do they show up in dmesg output (or if you cat /proc/kmsg)?
