Description Paul Eggleton 2013-08-30 09:20:51 UTC 
The libcap-ng recipe in meta-security has libcap in its DEPENDS, but as far as I can tell it should effectively be a replacement for libcap. I don't see a check in the libcap-ng configure script for it, and neither the Fedora spec file 
nor the Debian package info mention libcap as a build dependency of libcap-ng, so it's likely bogus.
