Services are not meant to launch binaries under /var, which is where Vanta installs its binaries and points the service to. Ideally, those would be moved somewhere like /usr/local/bin/vanta , but it turns out the path is also hardcoded in the binaries themselves, so they'll try creating logs, lock files, and looking for their binaries in that hardcoded location. To workaround that, we need to modify the SE context tag to make the folder and its binaries look like, well, binaries. It is important to also check /etc/vanta.conf to ensure the key and owner are configured properly. This is verified to work in a Fedora atomic distro like Fedora Kinoite. It was necessary to manually copy over the binaries as the ` rpm-ostree` installation method only installed the service definition and conf files, but was unable to create the /var/vanta folder.
