Hey everyone,
This week I completed the update of package android-platform-system-core
which produces two very useful binaries - adb and fastboot.

I found out that fastboot component of system-core required a library named
- libsepol which was part of the libselinux package. When libselinux was
packaged we didn't know that we will be needing libsepol so it wasn't
included but after I found out that it was needed by fastboot I included it
in libselinux package and created a pull request[1] which got accepted
successfully. Then libselinux was using make clean to clean the build
environment, so I made changes to use debian/clean to clean the build
environment.[2]

I had to make few changes here and there in makefiles to successfully build
all the components of system-core. I have created a pull request for
system-core package here[3].
