Hi all. The recent upload of iputils-* fixed a couple bugs in arping,
ping6, and tracepath6, but more importantly it introduced a dummy
netkit-ping package to allow for a smooth transition for people who had
previously had the netkit-ping package installed. Since that used to be
the default ping in Debian, there are probably quite a few systems out
there that need to make this transition.
The changelog entries are shown below.
Thanks.

* Apply patch from Loïc Minier <lool@dooz.org> to fix arping behavior
when -w and -c command line flags are given and the target host
does not reply. (Closes: Bug#233125)
* Provide a netkit-ping package so there's a smooth upgrade path for
people who had the old netkit ping implementation installed.

* Apply patch from Rémi Denis-Courmont <rdenis@simphalempin.com> to
