Hi, BLFS traceroute current version is 2.0.18and it is installed in /usr/binwith normal privileges.
But an older version of tracerouteis built in LFS (Inteutils-1.9.1) and installed in /bin suid. As a result the newly installed program is not in use (depending on the current path). > which traceroute -> /bin/traceroute IIRCthere was a note in older BLFS editions about either placing traceroute suid in /usr/bin or preventing usage by unprivileged users by removing the suid bit and moving it in /usr/sbin. Should not the newprogram replace the previous one or, at least, a note written to the reader about this ?
