Hi Jörg and Reuben,

@Reuben: Do you have an example package that suffers from the
false-positive?

@Jörg: I think shotwell is a true positive.  The binary is - by readelf
- identified as a shared object.

$ readelf -h  unpack/usr/lib/shotwell-video-thumbnailer | grep Type:
  Type:                              DYN (Shared object file)

Compare this with (e.g.) /bin/ls, which is an executable.

$ readelf -h  /bin/ls | grep Type:
  Type:                              EXEC (Executable file)
