Bug Description

Binary package hint: quagga

After installing Quagga, it checks and tries to load the capability.ko module into the stack.

don@firefly:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/quagga start
Loading capability module if not yet done.

A normal modprobe didn't solve this either

don@firefly:~$ sudo modprobe capability

I did try dpkg-reconfigure as specified in bug #22385 but apparently under this revision of the kernel, this bug has resurfaced.

I had the same issue with Bind9.

I managed to fix the issue by doing:

sudo modprobe commoncap
sudo modprobe -r apparmor
sudo modprobe capability

It seems that apparmor and capability are similar in what they do - Bind9 happened to work just fine with apparmor, I don't know really what the differences are.
