For what I can see, the version of libselinux1 in unstable has the 
following:

Depends: libc6 (>= 2.30), libpcre2-8-0 (>= 10.22)

Can you please tell me more from which version to which version you were 
updating?

I'm quite skeptical here, but could you please open a bug report for this?

Kind regards,
