[ale] SELinux complication???

[Sean Kilpatrick]

I need to remove an empty directory: /run/user/1000/gvfs

(gnome virtual file system?)

the find command hangs up on this directory.  When I try to delete it
with the rmdir command I am told the directory is NOT empty.  But it is!

so I tried this, as root:

[root at localhost 1000]#rmdir -v --ignore-fail-on-non-empty gvfs
rmdir: removing directory, ‘gvfs’
rmdir: failed to remove ‘gvfs’: Permission denied


So how do I push to one side whatever is in the way?
