The iputils build will try to make the binaries callable by regular users using setcap or setuid depending on what is available on the system. It turns out that libcap provides this command. I figured that adding the dependency on libcap-native and having meson search STAGING_DIR_NATIVE would work. If libcap is not on in PACKAGECONFIG, then it falls back to setuid. The script which does this is build-aux/setcap-setuid.sh.
This will become more apparent in version 2 which will contain the missing a patch file. - Jate On Thu, Feb 18, 2021 at 11:35 AM Richard Purdie < richard.pur...@linuxfoundation.org> wrote: > On Thu, 2021-02-18 at 00:11 +0000, Jate Sujjavanich wrote: > > Search for setcap in STAGING_DIR_NATIVE to avoid host contamination.
