[Bug libc/11643] ldopen failing with relative path ($ORIGIN) when a capability is set


------- Additional Comments From bugeaud at gmail dot com  2010-05-29 09:43 -------
Either #4177 is obsolete, or my guess is that I will be quite difficult for anyone 
to "get educated" on $ORIGIN behaviour "nominal behavior" and the expected impact 
on security when wokring with POSIX capabilities.

I know "code is the reference" but having to dig in glibc internals and even 
kernel (!!) for only making sure how something should behave "by design" always 
taste bitter to me. So, I will have to a pickaxe and dig the Web & the ML ;)

Anyway, thanks Roland.
