Hi,

I'm looking for a way how to correctly have beep program[1] with setuid
binary (I mean, what is correct process for this from maintainer point
of view? Or what should be done except change in spec file). I saw
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Privilege_escalation_policy
however, I have no idea what should I do that beep package will
implement it correctly.

Currently there is bug[2] which limits correct functionality of perl
module[3] only to root user.

Thanks for help,
Jan Klepek
