Description of problem:

bad declaration of __u32 in capabilities.h

This bug has existed for a while, it seems (at least since 2001). Its not fatal,
just noisy.

Basically, in libcap-1.10-userland.patch, it defines:

typedef uint32_t __u32;

but the kernel headers for all arches say:

typedef unsigned int __u32;

The libcap-1.10-userland patch just needs to be changed to match the kernel
definition.

pknirsch, you're getting this bug since ethereal depends on libcap, and I don't
think bero is going to fix this one. ;)

Fixed in latest libcap for Fedora Core.

Read ya, Phil
