16 This daemon reads /etc/selinux/{SELINUXTYPE}/setrans.conf and
17 /etc/selinux/{SELINUXTYPE}/secolors.conf configuration files, and com‐
18 municates with libselinux via a socket in /var/run/setrans. It also
19 watches for files created in /var/run/setrans and uses the contents of
20 these files to generate translations to the names. For example writing
21 a file /var/run/setrans/mydomain with content of s0:c1,c2 will cause
22 mcstrans to translate s0:c1,c2 to mydomain.
