------------------------------------
Summary: jsvc parameter --without-libcap for compilaton on Unix
Key: DAEMON-256
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAEMON-256
Project: Commons Daemon
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Jsvc
Affects Versions: 1.0.10
Environment: Linux, CentOS/RHEL 5,6 for example
Reporter: Michal Krejci
Priority: Minor
It would be nice to have special parameter for compilation JSVC without
"Capabilities" option. JSVC is compiled automatically with this option when
libcap-devel package is installed. During compilation without libcap-devel
package is only printed line:
WARNING: cannot find headers for libcap.
I use jsvc quite often, with "Capabilities" option is behaviour unexpected, no
messages after run binary without assigned correct rights, in documentation is
not described what and how to properly set.
For my purposes is "Capabilities" option unnecessary complication. I would
appreciate to have possibility deactivate this option, e.g.:
$ ./configure --without-libcap ...
