You need to tell SELinux to label your /home/share tree as it would
the /usr/share tree, and then relabel, e.g.:
# sed -n -e "/\/usr\/share/s/\/usr\/share\//\/home\/share\//p" /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts > /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts.local

# restorecon -R /home/share
