-libcap is a library for getting and setting POSIX.1e
-(formerly POSIX 6) draft 15 capabilities.
-
-libcap v2 implements support for filesystem capabilities; however,
-the kernel shipped with Slackware 12.1 does not support this.
-
- # grep CAPABILITIES /boot/config
- CONFIG_SECURITY_CAPABILITIES=y
- # CONFIG_SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES is not set
-
-To enable this support, recompile the kernel with this option set:
-
- Security options --->
- Enable different security models
- Default Linux Capabilities
- File POSIX Capabilities (EXPERIMENTAL)
-
-Even if you don't use this, the actual lib should still be compatible
-with libcap v1 in the 12.0 repo. If, however, this happens to not actually
-be the case, the SlackBuild there should still work fine on 12.1.
