| 1 | This might be a silly question already answered in a previous thread, |
| 2 | but why make it filecaps a USE-enable capability at all ? |
| 3 | |
| 4 | It's not like libcap is a big dependency and it's not like this is an |
| 5 | attempt to make the system more secure by according just the privileges |
| 6 | needed for apps to work as intended, right ? |
| 7 | |
| 8 | If the USE flag must stay, how is it different that current caps USE |
| 9 | flag ? It applies and not just enables support but is that relevant to |
| 10 | the purpose at hand ? |
