[Bug 1313550] [NEW] ping does not work as a normal user on trusty tarball cloud images.

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Clint Byrum (clint-fewbar):

With trusty, /bin/ping relies on having extended attributes and kernel
capabilities to gain the cap_net_raw+p capability. This allows removing
the suid bit.

However, the tarball cloud images do not preserve the extended
attributes, and thus /bin/ping does not work on a system derived from
them.

** Affects: iputils (Ubuntu)
