Review request for KDE Frameworks and David Faure.

Repository: kinit


Description
-------

The issue came up on security review of kinit package (yes, same is valid for 
kdelibs4...)
SUSE security team is not happy with kdeinit being SUID helper, thus 
capabilities are utilized first (if available)
I've just tried to integrate the suggested patch (from the report) with the 
CMake bits

Testing
-------

Built:
with setcap & libcap present - installed as advertised;
without one/both of them - the old procedure is in place (using SUID for the 
helper)

I am not sure how to test the OOM killer, fortunately it never kicked in 
kdelibs4 variant, so can't also say did it work as planned before...


Thanks,

Hrvoje Senjan
