Hello,
I've a question concerning copying the security.selinux xattr explicitly.
In you opinion what should happen in an implementation if it cannot be
reset security.selinux on the target file?
Apparently GNU cp -a ignore failures (while cp --preserve=context fails).
In some python helper function (_copyxattr(), see
https://bugs.python.org/issue14082), it will return an exception if the
copy of any of the xattr is failing, there is no special case for
security.selinux.
What do you think should be the behavior here?
Cheers,
Laurent Bigonville
