This feature is now approved and I see bugs get filed. The documentation and guidelines are very incomplete. How does one figure out which file capabilities are needed by the programs I maintain that currently use setuid? Help, please.
More to the point, I can easily see the setuid bit easily on a binary.
How do I tell if these strange/hidden "capabilities" are present on a binary? 'ls' doesn't mention anything.
