Description of problem:
log for virtnetworkd can not be set under path "/var/lib/"
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libvirt-10.4.0-1.el10.x86_64
selinux-policy-40.13.2-1.el10.noarch
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set the virtnetworkd.log file path as "/var/lib/virtnetworkd.log" in the configuration file, then restart the service:
# getenforce Enforcing # cat /etc/libvirt/virtnetworkd.conf log_outputs="2:file:/var/lib/virtnetworkd.log" # systemctl restart virtnetworkd Job for virtnetworkd.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status virtnetworkd.service" and "journalctl -xeu virtnetworkd.service" for details.
2. check the audit logs, there are several avc denied logs about virtnetworkd like as below:

Actual results:
log file for virtnetworkd can not be set under dir "/var/lib/"
Expected results:
log file can locate at "/var/lib/" as in rhel 9
Additional info:
Other services including virtinterfaced, virtnodedevd, virtnwfilterd, virtproxyd can not set logs under "/var/lib/", either. On rhel 9 with selinux-policy-38.1.38-1.el9.noarch, all these services can set logs under this "/var/lib/" dir.
