The SELinux codepaths should be a no-op if SELinux is disabled on the
machine itself. And python-selinux should only add around 600k of files
to the disk (libselinux package itself is already present on all the
systems).

If you want you can indeed downgrade the dependency to python-selinux
and add some explanation to the README, I just like the fact that if
somebody start experimenting with SELinux on debian most of the things
would just work(tm).
