Source: dmraid
Version: 1.0.0.rc16-8
Severity: minor

Hi,

dmraid is linking against libselinux and libsepol bug AFAICS, it's not
using any of their symbols.

I'm not sure why dmraid started linking against libselinux in the first
place, I looked at a really old version of the package in the archive
(0.9.9+1.0.0.rc9-1 form 2005) and it was the same, just linking against
libselinux with using any symbols.

I think it's safe to say that these (build-)dependencies can be dropped

Kind regards,

Laurent Bigonville
