I think this policy needs to be nested properly

Its a dependency thing

so for example:

optional_policy(`
  java_per_role_template(staff, staff_r, staff_t)

  optional_policy(`
    allow staff_java_t cdvoip_sysadmcat_pki_cdvaserver_pem_t: file
read_file_perms;
  ')
')

This is just a quick example, it is missing requires and it might have
errors.

The point is that this is about dependencies and proper nesting. This
can get very complicated depending on the complexity of the policy.

The issue is that the type you are using (staff_java_t) depends on the
java_per_role_template so it needs to be nested in that call else it is
out of scope.

Welcome to the wonderful world of optional policy and role prefixed
domains
