Thanks for this workaround! What a work saver.

I've also bugzilla'ed it here:

This is because rpm hasn't been updated for the new policy layout, so it
cannot find the file_contexts configuration.  Until it is updated, I
have just created a symlink, i.e.
ln -sf /etc/selinux/strict/contexts/files/file_contexts /etc/security/selinux/file_contexts
