Status:

1. he-basic-suite is still failing.

2. Patch to collect all of /var/log from the engine merged.

Dana, can you please update? Did you have any progress?

IMO it's an OS bug. If Marcin says it's an selinux issue, I do not argue :-).

Switching to CentOS Stream development/testing is a big effort, I'm not sure we can do this and still deliver all the RFEs/bugs planned for 4.4.5 ...
