Package: netdata
Version: 1.43.0-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,
I've got some time to check latest netdata package and I found several
issues. One is related to debugfs plugin. Here is the excerpt from logs:

2023-10-22 12:56:07: debugfs.plugin ERROR : debugfs.plugin : debugfs.plugin should either run as root (now running with uid 998, euid 998) or have special capabilities. Without these, debugfs.plugin cannot access /sys/kernel/debug. To enable capabilities run: sudo setcap cap_dac_read_search,cap_sys_ptrace+ep /usr/lib/netdata/plugins.d/debugfs.plugin; To enable setuid to root run: sudo chown root:netdata /usr/lib/netdata/plugins.d/debugfs.plugin; sudo chmod 4750 /usr/lib/netdata/plugins.d/debugfs.plugin;  (errno 13, Permission denied)

I followed the suggestion and added setuid flag to the plugin binary.
After restart the issue is gone. So, perhaps setuid should be set as
defaukt for debugfs plugin?
