Wekk, I know it's safest for Mandrake to disallow any SUID binaries in
rpms, but when we are talking about a media player that does not let the
remote world connect to it, is there really much harm in it?
I also noticed that smbmount, and KDE's lisa, do not function properly
unless they are SUID.
I don't know a good way around this, because Mandrake does not ask you
questions when you install (and I have always loved this over Debian's
method), but it'd be nice to know which binaries system-wide needed SUID
to work properly when not root.
Maybe if someone maintained a list?
