Hello there!
I acctually have a problem in compiling the current alfred master on debian 7.x based systems. If I try to compile it, alfred doesn't accept the installed libcap-dev version. When I do the same on deb8 / ubuntu 15.10 bases systems, the make process runs normally.
This problem is reproducible on any fresh installed deb7 systems. Has anyone an idea?
Thx an advance.
If possible I would prefer an German answer, but anyone who can help ist wellcome.
Christian

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
