You shouldn't need sources to relabel; relabeling is based on the
installed /etc/selinux/$SELINUXTYPE/contexts/files/file_contexts* files.
And SELINUXTYPE is read from /etc/selinux/config.  I'm a little confused
by your description above; /etc/selinux/dan_policy should be a complete
policy tree, i.e. /etc/selinux/dan_policy/policy/policy.NN would be the
installed binary policy
file, /etc/selinux/dan_policy/contexts/files/file_contexts would be the
file contexts configuration, and if you happen to install sources (which
aren't needed), they would go under /etc/selinux/dan_policy/src/policy.
Just like the strict or targeted policies.
