-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Haavard, It means your application is not capable(sic) of using the upper 32-bits of the 64-bit capability sets supported by this newer kernel. You might consider rebuilding the offending application linking it against a newer version of libcap: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/security/linux-privs/libcap2/ However, it is a warning and, for any existing app that doesn't care about newly added capabilities, the warning is benign.

What does that mean? What size do capabilities normally have?|| My near-namesake put than in, but I immediately forgot what it means? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFHsx3n+bHCR3gb8jsRAjlNAKDK4RLJsPsMPN96JJnTj3U25Bx91ACdESeN 2P3V2ISny33KY6v107iHsKU= =1jND -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- | ||||||||||||
