Right, but *why*? I never disable SELinux and have never had an issue.

Also, disabling it completely is likely not correct. If there is a specific
process that SELinux doesn't play nice with, you can lower SELinux
restrictiveness on a per-process level.

What process in OpenVAS does SELinux supposedly not play well with and what
are the side-effects/symptoms?
