Have two qemu/kvm virtual machines that were working in f40. Updated system to 41 and I'm getting the error that the iso for the rasberry os and the kali linux can't be accessed due to permissions. They are in /home/rm3/Downloads. The Rawhide virtual machine works with the fedora server ancestral file.
What needs to be fixed?

I have run into the same issue with not being able to access .iso files. If I put the files under the default directory libvirt looks in (/var/lib/libvirt/), it works just fine. I deleted the additional storage pools I had created previously, and recreated them hoping that virt-manager would label them properly and they'd work... but unfortunately that doesn't work.
I generally don't need to access .iso files on the virt host within a VM unless I'm doing an OS install in a newly created VM.
Another way to make it work is to setenforce 0 while needing access to the iso files... and then you can setenforce 1 when no longer needed (in my case, after the initial install is done and I'm not accessing .iso files anymore) and the VMs work fine.
I don't think this bug has been reported in bugzilla yet.
Hopefully those work-arounds will get you by until the issue gets worked out.
TYL, Scott Dowdle

For questions like this you should get the output of "ls -lZ" so it shows the selinux context as well.
Do you see selinux errors in the journal?
