and ...
caps? ( sys-libs/libcap-ng ) 
it's not a "cap" support - it's a "enable capabilities support"

[Comment 4 Rafał Mużyło 2011-01-09 23:19:43 UTC]

1. daemon compiles with plugins builtin
2. correct to a point, but you'll end up with automagic dep on ntpd if you add it this way
3. according to polkit manpage, correct - needs to be reported upstream

[Comment 5 Robert Piasek (RETIRED) 2011-01-21 17:09:55 UTC]

1. As Rafał mentioned, plugins are built-in.
2. ntpd - it was an overlook on my part. Should be fixed now.
3. Reported upstream. I sent a patch - hopefully should be merged soon.

I honestly don't know what are you referring with caps support. In connman we use global use flag (caps) for capabilities support. It's official description is:
"caps              Use Linux capabilities library to control privilege"

If you check configure.ac, you will notice, that libcap-ng is required.

        PKG_CHECK_MODULES(CAPNG, libcap-ng, dummy=yes,
                                AC_MSG_ERROR(Capabilities library is required))

I'm closing this bug report as fixed. Please feel free to re-open if you believe something else should be changed here.
