Package: netkit-ping
Version: 0.10-9
Severity: normal

Although netkit-ping only depends on libc6, it doesn't work on my
system (Debian unstable) if netbase is not installed.  

The error message I get without netbase installed is:

~$ ping       
ping: unknown protocol icmp.
 
Should netkit-ping depend on netbase?

        Hello,

All of these bugs should be fixed automagically by switching to 
iputils-ping which replaces netkit-ping in Debian Etch.

#262304 was tagged Woody, but this is not a supported release anymore.

#36663: it is in fact the number of packet *sent* that matters, not the 
the number of received ones. iputils-ping manpage is consistent.

#66551: the -I option is fixed with iputils-ping.

Regards,
