Hi,

ptxdist respects the 'select' statements in Kconfig, so you should be
able to make ptxdist build libsepol before libselinux by adding a
"select LIBSEPOL" to your "config LIBSELINUX" entry in
rules/libselinux.in. You can look at many other packages as an example,
or at this section [1] in the docs. But make sure that the 'select' is
directly in the "config LIBSELINUX" option and not in a sub-option,
otherwise the dependency parser will not find it.

Hope that solves your problem?
