Hi!

Alfred 2016.5 fails to start with the following message: cap_set_proc: Operation not permitted

2016.3 works flawlessly.

Were there changes regarding the dropping of privileges on start-up and running as user "alfred"?

Not really. There was a single change [1] that introduced one more function which enables+disables the NET_ADMIN capability.

But I've just tested it here and cannot reproduce the problem (following the explanations from the README).

Kind regards, Sven
