while the context of this post leaves a little something to be desired,
you might first check to see if the kernel is compiled with se-linux.
If not, it's been my experience (under other distro's, mind you) to have
to re-compile the kernel with this support before using the libraries.

Please do remember that the list is for assisting us all, and not a
'tutorial-central'.  Everyone here is more than happy to help, but
remarks such as "or do I just have to go somewhere else" usually elicit
replies to the affirmative, if only to push your buttons...

let us know how you get on with this.
