So it now looks like: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Template: xastir/install-setuid Type: boolean Default: false _Description: Should non-superusers be able to use native AX.25 interfaces? Xastir can be installed in a way that allows members of the "xastir-ax25" system group to use a native Linux AX.25 interface from within Xastir. Where available this configuration uses Linux capabilities in order to limit the process's privileges to only those required, falling back on installing the binary setuid where Linux capabilities are not available. . This is recommended over the alternative of running Xastir directly as root, but enabling it may be a security risk, so it is disabled by default. If in doubt, or if you do not intend to use native AX.25 interfaces (using a serial TNC or Internet connection instead), it is suggested to leave it disabled. . For more detailed information please see /usr/share/doc/xastir/README.Debian. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for your help. (: I'll give it a day or so to see if there are any more comments, then if it's all quiet I'll set that in stone and request translations.
