I'm experiencing a problem that seems to involve libselinux1 while using python-libavg package, a boost.Python based C++ library.

Simplest testcase:

1. install python-libavg w/ deps
2. from python cli:
>>> import libavg
>>> CTRL-D

distro: Ubunu hardy heron / 8.04
arch: both i386 (Intel core duo) and amd64 (AMD Athlon64 X2)
