Update exclusion list

# This file lists libraries that we will assume to be present on the host system and hence
# should NOT be bundled inside AppImages. This is a working document; expect it to change
# over time. File format: one filename per line. Each entry should have a justification comment.

# See the useful tool at https://abi-laboratory.pro/index.php?view=navigator&symbol=hb_buffer_set_cluster_level#result
# to investigate issues with missing symbols.

# Note, after discussion we do not exlude this, but we can use a dummy library that just does nothing
# libselinux.so.1
# Workaround for:
# sed: error while loading shared libraries: libpcre.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
# Some distributions, such as Arch Linux, do not come with libselinux.so.1 by default.
# The solution is to bundle a dummy mock library:
# echo "extern int is_selinux_enabled(void){return 0;}" >> selinux-mock.c
# gcc -s -shared -o libselinux.so.1 -Wl,-soname,libselinux.so.1 selinux-mock.c 
# strip libselinux.so.1
# More information: https://github.com/AppImage/AppImages/issues/83

# The following are assumed to be part of the base system
# Removing these has worked e.g., for Krita. Feel free to report if
# you think that some of these should go into AppImages and why.
