I'm setting up a test VM network for myself. Is this a good forum for questions? For instance, I've just stumbled over SElinux type of /etc/machine-info. Type was unlabeled_t, not hostname_etc_t. I probably broke it by running virt-customize --hostname myhost.example.com without adding the option --selinux-relabel. Is this the kind of thing I can ping this mailing list about?

We've discussed adding this option and doing the right thing automatically in the past, but didn't get round to implementing it.
