Meta-security and Meta-selinux both have libcap-ng. Instead of maintaining

I think at very least you can propose it for meta-oe if not or-core.
But I also wonder why meta-selinux is not a sub-layer under
meta-security,

meta-selinux existed first... no other reason.


The last time I looked at meta-security (well over a year ago), it wasn't terribly useful. It was just a random collection of security-like packages, some worked, some didn't.

If it has grown since then to be more of a cohesive set of packages, then meta-selinux being part of it may make sense.
