blackbox_exporter was updated to 0.18.0, but after installation the binary is missing the required (and intended) cap_net_rap capability; therefore e.g. ICMP probes will not work. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge blackbox_exporter-0.18.0 2. test ICMP probes 3. failure Actual Results: Missing cap_net_raw capability on the binary Expected Results: $getcap /usr/bin/blackbox_exporter-0.18.0 /usr/bin/blackbox_exporter-0.18.0 cap_net_raw=ep I briefly tried t fix the FILECAPS statement to refer to the binary (i.e. "blackbox_exporter-0.18.0") instead of the plain executable name (which ends up being a symlink), but that didn't work either. Not sure why.
The symlink is a problem but there's more to that (likely broke since 0.17.0). FILECAPS=( cap_net_raw usr/bin/blackbox_exporter-${PV} ) pkg_postinst() { go-module_pkg_postinst fcaps_pkg_postinst } $ getcap /usr/bin/blackbox_exporter-0.18.0 /usr/bin/blackbox_exporter-0.18.0 cap_net_raw=ep

This isn't fixed at all with -r2: - the exeutable still has the wrong name (with version), so the openrc init file no longer works since the plain symlink is now gone. - the executable still does not have the necessary capabilities
