Hi,

after this change

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/1a51410abe7d0ee4b1d112780f46df87d3621043

iotop cannot be used as user anymore.
Any suggestions how to proceed?

The solution I see are

1.
Leave it to root (Fedora and Suses way)
2.
suid it (bad in my view)
3.
file capabilities (can this be done with portage)

Please comment and help me with the right proceeding.

justin
