Bug#195589: RFA: pchar -- Characterize the bandwidth, latency and loss on network links
Package: wnpp
Version: unavailable; reported 2003-05-31
Severity: normal
pchar is no longer being actively developed upstream, I do not have time to
deal with its bugs, and there are several similar tools in Debian already.
If no one steps forward to adopt it, I will request that it be removed from
Debian.
The package description is:
pchar is a reimplementation of the pathchar utility, written by Van
Jacobson. Both programs attempt to characterize the bandwidth,
latency, and loss of links along an end-to-end path through the
Internet. pchar works in both IPv4 and IPv6 networks.
