I know this doesn't answer your question regarding spec file contents; and I 
see your issue.  But you might want to check out the "semanage" command. 
"chcon" isn't going to persist if selinux does a relabel (which happens 
regularly in some environments).

You might want check out the section "5.7.2 Persistent Changes: semanage 
fcontext" here.

Subject: RPM to include SELinux information?


Hi,

I'm trying to build RPM that deploys application into SELinux environment, for 
it to work I need to label $application_dir with httpd_sys_content_t so that 
httpd can read it. What is the best approach to this? Adding 

%postinst
chcon -t httpd_sys_content_t $application_dir

seems kind of hacky, are there any macros (like %attr) that could help? So far 
quick look at fedora and RH documents yeilded no results, I may have missed 
something though so please let me know if I did.
