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.
