Hmmm, it looks like the '-e' isn't needed at all. 'semanage fcontext -l' works fine. A patch something like this, might help clear things up. The manpage confused me :)

Description of problem: The command 'semanage fcontext -l -e' fails unless you specify two paths as arguments. These arguments are not used, as far as I can tell. They can be anything. The same applies to semanage fcontext -D -e This is confusing. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Name : policycoreutils Arch : x86_64 Version : 2.1.11 Release : 5.fc17 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run 'semanage fcontext -l -e' as root Actual results: /sbin/semanage: semanage [ -S store ] -i [ input_file | - ] semanage [ -S store ] -o [ output_file | - ] semanage login -{a|d|m|l|D|E} [-nsr] login_name | %groupname semanage user -{a|d|m|l|D|E} [-LnrRP] selinux_name semanage port -{a|d|m|l|D|E} [-ntr] [ -p proto ] port | port_range semanage interface -{a|d|m|l|D|E} [-ntr] interface_spec semanage module -{a|d|m} [--enable|--disable] module semanage node -{a|d|m|l|D|E} [-ntr] [ -p protocol ] [-M netmask] addr semanage fcontext -{a|d|m|l|D|E} [-efnrst] file_spec semanage boolean -{d|m} [--on|--off|-1|-0] -F boolean | boolean_file semanage permissive -{d|a|l} [-n] type semanage dontaudit [ on | off ] ... Expected results: Print out the fcontext info.
