This is a library for getting and setting POSIX.1e (formerly POSIX 6)
draft 15 capabilities.

Natively supported languages are C/C++ and Go.

This library would not have been possible without the help of 

    Aleph1, Roland Buresund and Andrew Main, Alexander Kjeldaas.

More information on capabilities in the Linux kernel, links to the
official git repository for libcap, release notes and how to report
bugs can be found at:

# BUILDING AND INSTALLATION

    $ make

       builds the library and the programs that are expected to work
       on your system. For example, if you have Linux-PAM installed,
       pam_cap is built. A golang installation is required to build
       the Go packages.

    $ make test

       runs all of the tests not requiring privilege

    $ make sudotest

       runs all of the tests including those that require privilege.

    $ sudo make install

       default installs the library libcap.XX.Y in /lib[64]/
       the binaries in /sbin/
       the header files in /usr/include
       the {libcap,libpsx}.pc files in /usr/lib[64]/pkgconfig
       the Go packages (if built) under /usr/share/gocode/src

For some example C programs look in the progs/ directory.
Specifically, capsh, getpcaps, setcap and getcap. There are some C
tests in the tests/ directory.

Go example programs are to be found in the goapps/ directory. There
are also some more complicated integration tests in the go/ directory.

There are also some oddball experimental things in the contrib/
directory, but they are mostly curiosities.
