i wanna setcap command. so i search software.opensuse.org website using keyword libcap. but i get three similar results related to libcap. i think libcap2 is what i want. but i try to figure out what’s the difference between them?
the following picture show my results. thanks advance.
They’re newer versions of the same technology, AFAIK, the naming is done to allow the packages to coexist
sorry, my mistakes.
all packages mentioned above do NOT provide setcap command but libcap-progs does.
and libcap is in fact libcap1.
but what is the difference between libcap1 and libcap2?
