Title:
  CAP_AUDIT_READ is not supported on Xenial

Status in libcap2 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I'm encountering the same issue as #1451601 describes. The fix, a more
  recent libcap2 2.25, has made it into the Yakkety distribution but not
  Xenial.

  Summary of the problem: One cannot raise or lower CAP_AUDIT_READ,
  which is equal to decimal value 37. As compiled, libcap2 2.24 supports
  up to CAP_BLOCK_SUSPEND (36).
