Log:
test if rpmdb can read /etc/resolv.conf symlink
The rpmdb process executed by the rpmdb-rebuild service wants to
read the /etc/resolv.conf symlink, but SELinux denies that access,
because SELinux policy does not allow that. This TC is able to
reproduce the issue.
I believe this issue should be fixed in selinux-policy component
via appropriate allow rule.
The TC covers BZ#1898298.
