The bug report only said pkg-config support might be nice, but it was not specified as a requirement. Anyways, I made a new release of libcap-ng today with a pkg-config file added. There are no other user of that file, so please let me know if something is wrong with it. http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/libcap-ng/libcap-ng-0.6.2.tar.gz > I like to have capability dropping in bluetoothd, but I do wanna do it > with a proper upstream project. one other thing I thought I would point out. The patch I sent can make it easy to run the bluetooth daemon as non-root user. If we switch this line: capng_apply(CAPNG_SELECT_BOTH); to capng_change_id(uid, gid, CAPNG_DROP_SUPP_GRP | CAPNG_CLEAR_BOUNDING); then the job is easier. Of course you would likely need to fixup file permissions in places, but in theory a non-root bluetooth daemon is possible with a 1 line change in the patch. You would probably want to add error handling and a way to specify the uid/gid, too. -Steve -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-bluetooth" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
