Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/issues/2702

Anytime a firejail sandbox is created under Fedora 30 journald attempts to kill itself (?) for whatever reason and this causes a denial. This didn't happen under 29. The issue also persists even with --disable-userns.

I've reported it here https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1711122

I'm not sure what part is at fault here, firejail or Fedora's selinux-policy.

Okay, this is probably a firejail issue.
It does not occur when disable-common.inc is commented in a profile.

Edit:
The offending line appears to be:
e8e1eed08d/etc/disable-common.inc (L411)

Edit: while commenting that line seems to mostly silence the issue, I'm still seeing it here and there
