When trying to set the SELinux context for a Samba share using the following command sudo semanage fcontext --add --type "samba_share_t" "/home/user/Öffentlich(/.*)?" I get the following error message /sbin/setfiles: /var/lib/selinux/final/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts.local: line 4 error due to: Non-ASCII characters found /sbin/setfiles: /var/lib/selinux/final/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts.local: line 4 error due to: Non-ASCII characters found /var/lib/selinux/final/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts: Invalid argument libsemanage.semanage_validate_and_compile_fcontexts: setfiles returned error code 1.

Is there an estimate when the patch will be released?
I got some feedback I need to address. But I could create a copr repository with testing build
I would really appreciate, if this issue could be resolved as soon as possible. I haven't been able to set up the Samba share for over half a year now. Do you know how long it will take until the patch is released?
