Not sure exactly what it's complaining about, but try this:

# chcon -Rh -t user_home_t /usr/local/trotter
# chcon -t user_home_dir_t /usr/local/trotter

That should make the file contexts of your home directory the same as
they would be if it was under /home.

These contexts probably won't survive a relabel, if you were to do one.
The way to fix that would depend on which Fedora release you were using.
