Package: arping
Version: 2.07~pre1-2

All versions prior to 2.07 (and this includes 2.07pre1) that have a bug with address resolving. This bug causes arpings to a hostname to sometimes fail silently while arpinging the IP address works fine.

I am the upstream author and this has been fixed for a long time. The code change from 2.07pre1 and 2.07 is pretty much just this, and the only change from 2.07 to 2.08 for code that is compiled for Linux is the version number, so I recommend (and ask) that lenny gets arping 2.08 because I periodically get bug reports about this.

Dear submitter,

these bug are tagged lenny without any wheezy/jessie/stretch tag
implying that the bug is not present in more recent Debian releases.

lenny is no longer supported.

We are sorry that we couldn't deal with your issue in squeeze.

If this bug was incorrectly tagged lenny, please reopen the bug
and remove the lenny tag.

Adrian

       "Only a promise," Lao Er said.
