_Description: Should non-superusers be able to use native AX.25 interfaces?
Xastir can be installed in a way that allows members of the "xastir-ax25"
system group to use a native Linux AX.25 interface from within Xastir.
Where available this configuration uses Linux capabilities in order to
limit the process's privileges to only those required, falling back on
installing the binary setuid where Linux capabilities are not available.
.
This is recommended over the alternative of running Xastir directly as
root, but enabling it may be a security risk, so it is disabled by
default. If in doubt, or if you do not intend to use native AX.25
interfaces (using a serial TNC or Internet connection instead), it is
suggested to leave it disabled.
.
For more detailed information please see
/usr/share/doc/xastir/README.Debian.
