When attempting to run: libvirt.git/_build # ./run --selinux ./src/libvirtd the following error is thrown: Refusing to change selinux context of file './src/libvirtd' outside build directory which is obviously wrong. The problem is 'being inside of build directory' is detected by simple progpath.startswith(builddir). While builddir is an absolute path, progpath isn't necessarily. And while looking into the code, I've noticed chcon() function accessing variable outside its scope when printing out the path it's working on.
