[12:53:05] <jbergstroem> 2. liboping bump assumes (set|get)cap is available, need to check for it first [12:53:11] <dilfridge> :| [12:53:20] <dilfridge> won't work [12:53:26] <jbergstroem> oh? [12:53:37] <jbergstroem> libcap? [12:53:47] <dilfridge> it can work but there is no guarantee so far [12:54:01] <jbergstroem> you mean from a FS point of view? [12:54:14] <dilfridge> because there is no specification what portage does with caps when the image is merged into the installation
Created attachment 284597 [details] liboping-1.6.1-build.log Build log when capabilities fail. If libcap(-ng) isn't installed, it will fail with "setcap not found"
You get this error because you dont use FEATURES="usersandbox userpriv" (which I do, and then the configure script does not even try setting caps or suid). Bad bad buildsystem... basically we need to hard-disable this mechanism, and do whatever is needed later by hand in the ebuild.
"fixed" by backing out the change and setting suid by hand... caps would be an improvement, but that needs handling in portage first
