 I wonder a bit about the setcap though. As I understand it, you would use
*either* setcap *or* setuid. Before the bump, IPUTILS_PERMISSIONS would do
setuid. Clearly, setcap is way better.

 Is there any reason not to use setcap (or actually, xattrs)? Maybe some
filesystems don't support xattrs - iso9660 for example?

 Just do it in a post-install hook, no?
