Bug#351631: [Pkg-shadow-devel] Bug#351631: passwd: Please compile with SE Linux support

[Christian Perrier]

Quoting Russell Coker (russell at coker.com.au):

> Now that libselinux1 has priority required there is no reason for any
> package not to include SE Linux support.
> 
> Please remove the --without-selinux from debian/rules.  This will not
> alter the functionality on a non-SE system, but makes a big difference

I see no objection to this. Last time we were considering this, Manoj
suggested another way to go (namely use/support pam_selinux,
IIRC). Manoj, would you care commenting?

Hint: I am myself totally ignorant about SE Linux so please forgive in
advance any stupid question or remark I would make...:)
