Package: manpages
Version: 3.27-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

capabilities(7) mentions that
       Removing  capabilities  from the bounding set is only supported if file
       capabilities are compiled into the  kernel  (CONFIG_SECURITY_FILE_CAPA‐
       BILITIES).

In recent kernels, there is no CONFIG_SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES
option any more, it is now on by default and cannot be turned off.
This de-sync of docs and software may lead to people searching for
that kernel option.

The man page should explicitly mention that
CONFIG_SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES is only needed for pre-squeeze
kernels.

Greetings
Marc
