The task:

- name: “instal Vadim Shkolin’s repository”  
action: copy src=vsh.repo  
dest=/etc/yum.repos.d/vsh.repo  
backup=yes force=yes  
owner=root group=root mode=0644 setype=\_default

The result:

The file was created, but security context was not set. When I play this task again (file /etc/yum.repos.d/vsh.repo is exists on target systems, but has wrong context), the taks is executed without errors and context is set properly. When I remove file from targed systems and comment “setype=\_default”, taks is executed without errors, but file has wrong context. When I execute this task on CentOS-6 systems, all work fine.

When I use branch “release1.3.3”, all work fine with both CentOS5 and CentOS6 systems.
