 While doing:  yum groupinstall "Development Tools"

 on my 12.1.0 build 19 on an XO-1.5, I saw this curious error scroll by:


   Updating   : glibc-common-2.15-51.fc17.i686                   8/73
 Error unpacking rpm package glibc-common-2.15-51.fc17.i686
 error: unpacking of archive failed on file /usr/libexec/pt_chown: cpio:
 cap_set_file


 A web search turned up this page, which suggests we might need to turn on
 CONFIG_EXT3_FS_SECURITY in the kernel:
