Description Mathieu Velten 2016-12-01 10:15:29 UTC 
In Atomic /usr/local is a soft symlink to /var/usrlocal, so the default policy to apply bin_t on /usr/...bin doesn't work and binaries dumped here get mislabeled as var_t. It makes them unavailable from a systemd unit for example.

Adding '/var/usrlocal/(.*/)?bin(/.*)?    system_u:object_r:bin_t:s0' to file_contexts.local and calling restorecon fixes the problem as a workaround.
