There is a PR to just skip the setcap step (LizardByte/Sunshine#2977) but before that is merged, I want to verify there are no other options. |

Instead of using
setcapin a scriptlet, specify it in the filelist using%caps. See e.g. https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/iputils/blob/7ca88c33e6e928bb19fdc12e38663bd750cfc6ea/f/iputils.spec#_73.
