Hi!

I'm a bit confused, the sys/capability.h header which is part of libcap
includes the linux/capability.h header which defines the the
CAP_LAST_CAP (at least on my system). So there shouldn't be a
disagreement between these two unless libcap was compiled with wrong
kernel headers which I would call a bug in distribution. Are you sure
that all your packages are up to date?
