AFAICT the argument is that selinux should not be hard linked at all. Having openssh require selinux libs is unwanted overhead for the installer. A solution should be found so that selinux will only be used if it is available _at runtime_, as was already done for some other libs that also produce udebs. See for comparison: http://bugs.debian.org/318115 http://bugs.debian.org/375413 Alternatively the udebs could be compiled separately without selinux support. Cheers, FJP
