Yes RPM is checking to see if the contents of 
/etc/security/selinux/file_context for
each file installed, and the kernel is telling rpm it has no idea what 
it is talking about and
rpm is reporting this as an error (Warning actually).  So RPM should be 
doing a check
to is_selinux_enabled() before trying to assign context.
