   A final note:  I solved my lilypond compile problems.  I compile the 
SlackBuild as root, and it worked.  I had always did a "SU" to root before.
   Anyway, I now have everything compiled including runtime stuff and a 
working copy of Rosegarden.
   Libcap was a problem but we used the 12.0 build, and it seems to 
work.  Libcap v2.11 12.1 would not compile on my system.
Question:  I compiled the kernel so that I have this:
$ grep CAPABILITIES /boot/config
CONFIG_SECURITY_CAPABILITIES=y
CONFIG_SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES=y
   Can I remove this from the kernel now that I'm using libcap v1.92 for 
Slackware 12.0?
Thanks,
Bob
