I have two traceroute programs installed and I've noticed that they don't have the same permissions:
~$ ls -l /usr/bin/inetutils-traceroute
-rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 60184 August 23, 2023 /usr/bin/inetutils-traceroute
~$ ls -l /usr/bin/traceroute.db
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 72944 25 feb 2023 /usr/bin/traceroute.db
You can see that traceroute.db doesn't have the special permission "s" and that's why I installed inetutils-traceroute which allows me to use the -I option as a user. But this program comes with a lot of other programs that I don't need at all.
So my question is: can I safely add this special "s" permission to traceroute.db so as to keep only the original package installed by Debian?
