Manoj, 

I have a package (ipsec-tools) which has a similar situation to setools and
already has a bug filed for it (See #314981). I considered moving the
concerned shared libraries into the plugin directory because these "shared
libraries" were only for the ipsec-tools binaries and not for general
use. That would need lots of unnecessary changes to the makefiles, probably
fiddling with the dreaded RPATH etc.  So, I think a clarification will be
nice.
