OK, so it's actually not a direct dependency, but installing fastboot 
pulls android-libselinux, android-libsepol and android-libunwind (and 
maybe other)

$ aptitude why android-libselinux
iB  fastboot              Dépend android-libext4-utils
idA android-libext4-utils Dépend android-libselinux

$ aptitude why android-libsepol
iB  fastboot              Dépend android-libext4-utils
idA android-libext4-utils Dépend android-libselinux
idA android-libselinux    Dépend android-libsepol

$ aptitude why android-libunwind
iB  fastboot              Dépend android-libziparchive
i A android-libziparchive Dépend android-libutils
i A android-libutils      Dépend android-libbacktrace
i A android-libbacktrace  Dépend android-libunwind

All of these already exist in the archive: libselinux1, libsepol1, 
libunwind8
