Re: semodule and fixfiles

Exactly what it says; the system stores a list of what files should
have which labels, and it doesn't know about that path.  You can see
the raw data on what's currently defined at
/etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts and
/etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts.local , although
you really should managed them with `semanage fcontext`.
