+Subject: [PATCH] Lower CAP_SYS_NICE from the ambient set
+
+The capabilities wrapper raises CAP_SYS_NICE into the ambient set so it
+is inherited by the wrapped program. However, we don't want it to leak
+into the entire desktop environment.
+
+Lower the capability again at startup so that the kernel will clear it
+on exec.
