Further investigation shows that your package carries forth the selinux 
components from the Fedora package (which is the Right Thing), so I have 
those installed already.

I found through audit2why that the files in /var/lib/BackupPC (mounted from 
an external USB drive) are mislabeled as system_u:object_r:unlabeled_t:s0 
and should be labeled system_u:object_r:var_lib_t:s0. I'm running a 
recursive restorecon on the mount point to address that. But I need to find 
out why the backup script doesn't properly label these as it creates them. 
This should be done automatically and the app shouldn't need to do anything 
special. I'll investigate further.

The files in /var/log/BackupPC appear to be labeled correctly but the web 
CGI doesn't display them. This might be a side effect of the mislabeled 
/var/lib tree so I'll test again once the restorecon finishes.
