It is libattr1 I believe, and is certainly available in
sid and sarge. woody also I believe but haven't gone

If you have a modern glibc (>= 2.3) built against recent kernel headers
(>= 2.4.20), then you can just apply the attached patch to libselinux
and build it without libattr. Otherwise, you need to obtain libattr.
Note that the sourceforge CVS tree already includes this change (and
several others).
