I'd like to propose the rename of caps USE flag to libcap. The reason |
2 |
for this is that I'd like to free the "caps" USE flag from the (runtime) |
3 |
dependency of libcap, so that, one we have the framework to do so, we |
4 |
could use the "caps' USE flag to set file capabilities directly (rather |
5 |
than setuid for instance). |
6 |
|
7 |
The step right afterward would be, for me, to find a way to mirror the |
8 |
capabilities from within Portage. I admit I have no clue how to achieve |
9 |
that for now. But at least the rename is a simple task, and I suppose |
10 |
the capabilities handling _could_ be a SoC project... |
