OK, getting closer - I believe when I installed I realised there wasn't
currently a Debian
package "libcap2-dev" so continued on to see how things would go.  I see it's
now called
"libcap-dev", so that's installed and I now have /usr/include/sys/capability.h

I did a CVS update and have rebuilt pretty much everything, but recycling is
still being
disabled and I am still not quite sure why - this is what's showing in the logs
 now, though:

Apr  1 11:14:57 home synchronet: The process 12989 was given capabilities =

Apr  1 11:14:57 home synchronet: Disabling Mail Server recycle support
Apr  1 11:14:57 home synchronet: Disabling Services recycle support

There doesn't seem to be a 'capability' kernel module for either the 3.16 or
4.9 kernels on
the system.

So.. I suspect that either I need to do something further on the re-compiling,
or add
something on to the system?

Thanks!
