The fix for that is already available. If you get the version from testing
that should have it.

On another note, you made the same mistake I did. You really want to require
the executable rather than the package. That way it works with older and
newer versions of selinux. As long as the binary is in one of the normal
binary locations, yum doesn't take a hit (I asked about that).
