Subject: [PATCH] Lower CAP_SYS_NICE from the ambient set
5
+
6
+
The capabilities wrapper raises CAP_SYS_NICE into the ambient set so it
7
+
is inherited by the wrapped program. However, we don't want it to leak
8
+
into the entire desktop environment.
9
+
10
+
Lower the capability again at startup so that the kernel will clear it
11
+
on exec.
