Even with AppArmor installed, making your package more secure is
always a good idea.

Or you just add a Requires: apparmor-profiles apparmor-utils ;-)

I tried it now and added --with-capabilities to configure, and
BuildRequires: libcap-devel
But starting syslog-ng now fails with:

linux-0a57:~ # syslog-ng -v
syslog-ng: Error parsing capabilities:
cap_net_bind_service,cap_net_broadcast,cap_net_raw,cap_dac_read_searc
h,cap_dac_override,cap_chown,cap_fowner=p cap_syslog=ep

I was told, that this is a sign of too old capabilities package...
cap_syslog was added around 2.6.38

Nice :-/ but not my area of responsibility ;-)

Please direct update requests for libcap to

# om libcap # [1]
bugowner of Base:System/libcap :
tiwai@xxxxxxxx

maintainer of Base:System/libcap :

As kernel.org is down, I can't get the latest source for now.
If anyone already updated it, feel free to submit.


thanks,

Takashi
