There are a bunch of files and directories in my F10 home dirs that have type unconfined_u:object_r:user_home_t, but matchpathcon says they are supposed to be system_u:object_r:user_home_t. I tried to run restorecon but it isn't changing the type:

[root@l 9:06:49 /home/install]#matchpathcon /home/install/Templates
/home/install/Templates	system_u:object_r:user_home_t:s0
[root@l 9:06:51 /home/install]#ls -lZd Templates
drwxr-xr-x install install unconfined_u:object_r:user_home_t:s0 Templates/
[root@l 9:06:56 /home/install]#restorecon -R Templates
[root@l 9:07:07 /home/install]#ls -lZd Templates
drwxr-xr-x install install unconfined_u:object_r:user_home_t:s0 Templates/

[root@l 9:07:10 /home/install]#su - install
[install@l ~]$ restorecon -R .
[install@l ~]$ restorecon -R Templates/
[install@l ~]$ logout
[root@l 9:08:23 /home/install]#ls -lZd Templates
drwxr-xr-x install install unconfined_u:object_r:user_home_t:s0 Templates/

Why does this happen?

restorecon doesn't change the user part of a context unless you use -F.
