Just because the library files are there and packages are dependent upon them doesn't mean that selinux is enabled.

Hmmm. in my VE the following 2 selinux libraries are installed: 
  libselinux1 
  libsepol1 

And these below depend on the above 2 libraries: 
  coreutils 
  libpam-modules 
  mount 
  util-linux 
  cron 
  libdevmapper1.02 
  libglib2.0-0 
  logrotate 
  openssh-server 
  passwd 
  sysvinit 
  sysvinit-utils 
  vim 

So, I would need to deinstall the dependent modules as well, 
but then even ssh is among them... :-) 

Any tips on how to remove selinux from my system? 
(I have access to the VE only) 

BTW, the mentioned command in Victor's posting (setenforce 0) isn't available here.
