Description dwfreed 2011-12-23 07:53:51 UTC

BIND will not start if it's compiled with USE="threads -caps" because it needs capabilities support in order to use -u with threads.  As a test, merging with USE="threads caps" works just fine, so the easy fix would be to add to REQUIRED_USE "threads? ( caps )"

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Merge BIND with USE="threads -caps"
2. Start BIND
Actual Results:  
named: -u with Linux threads not supported: no capabilities support or capabilities disabled at build time

Expected Results:  
BIND should have started
