I think that only an unstable/experimental distro can have file capabilities, because this feature is not present in the standard kernel and it exists only as an unofficial, highly experimental patch. Even more, this patch is not POSIX compliant, which is probably the main reason for which it's not in the kernel yet. So, I agree it's good to have, but I will not patch my kernel with this until it's proven stable and ready for a production usage. With regards, Pavel Troller
