What were you trying to do that didn't work?

I have hit an error on aarch64... not sure what kind of system it was

Would you say that maybe the script is leaving unnecessarily too many files open, leading to this error?

What is the impact of this issue to you?

keylime-create script doesn't produce valid policy

Please provide the package NVR for which the bug is seen:

I believe it was RHEL-9.7.
