Hi,

with the current 3.8-rc1 release:

[root@default-0 selinux]# semanage fcontext -a -t user_home_dir_t /tmp/test_dir
[root@default-0 selinux]# semanage fcontext -l -C
SELinux fcontext                                   type               Context

/tmp/test_dir                                      all files          system_u:object_r:user_home_dir_t:s0 
[root@default-0 selinux]# semanage fcontext -D
sefcontext_compile: sefcontext_compile.c:206: write_sidtab: Assertion `sids[0].id == 1' failed.

libsemanage.sefcontext_compile: sefcontext_compile returned error code -1. Compiling /var/lib/selinux/final/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts.local
