What is your target here?  FC4 or FC5?  In FC4, you'd have to push up
the change into the policy sources, possibly as a new .fc file (but I'm
not clear on whether you want /var/lib/cacti to be completely equivalent
to /var/www/html as above or if you want a new type here so that you can
still distinguish them for other purposes).  In FC5, you will be able
create a separate policy module package (via checkmodule and
semodule_package) with a pre-compiled policy module and your own
file_contexts info and ship it either as part of your package or as a
separate xxx-policy package on which your package depends, and have it
installed via semodule run from %post.  Keeping it as a separate
xxx-policy package is nice if you want to be able to update the policy
for it later separate from updating the base package itself.
