Thanks for investigation, Richard. Is it somehow possible to disable `setfiles'
invocation
during virt-v2v conversion run? E.g. via environment variable?
You can do --no-selinux-relabel, but that disables relabelling
completely, which may mean that your VM won't boot.
Have you tried making edits to the file_contexts file to work
out exactly which part setfiles is complaining about? That may
give some clues about a better workaround.
Rich.
