This problem is reproducible on any fresh installed deb7 systems. Has anyone an idea?

libcap 1:2.22-1.2 from Debian oldstable is missing the pkg-config file. This was only fixed in the current Debian stable release (1:2.24-8). So you have different options

* build without capability support using a make override

make CONFIG_ALFRED_CAPABILITIES=n

* provide the info about the libs and flags for libcap as make override

make LIBCAP_CFLAGS='' LIBCAP_LDLIBS='-lcap'

* install a newer version of libcap which includes libcap.pc

Kind regards, Sven
