Description

Like DAEMON-242 , jsvc will not start:

{{

}}

(formatting doesn't work: that's /usr/STAR/libcapSTAR in the ls)

If I symlink /usr/lib/libcap.so -> /lib64/libcap.so then it starts and seems to work fine. This did not happen in 1.0.7

Following issue links from DAEMON-242 I tried rerunning autoconf locally. But there is no -lcap anywhere and ldd doesn't show it.

Perhaps you just need to add /lib64 into the dlopen loop?
