Package: httping
Version: 2.5-5
Severity: normal

Hi!

httping's manual says:

=====
       -p portnumber
              -p can be used together with -h. -p selects  the  portnumber  to
              probe.
=====

But it doesn't seem to be working:

=====
$ httping -p 443 josm.openstreetmap.de
PING josm.openstreetmap.de:80 (/):
connected to 95.216.72.248:80 (253 bytes), seq=0 time=522,23 ms
=====

See that it's still using port 80

"httping --help" also says:

=====
-p x / --port            portnumber (e.g. 80) - use with -h
=====

But testing with -h I don't see any difference:

=====
$ httping -p 443 -h josm.openstreetmap.de
PING josm.openstreetmap.de:80 (/):
connected to 95.216.72.248:80 (253 bytes), seq=0 time=533,90 ms
=====

So either I did completely misunderstand the portnumber option or it's
really not working as expected.

Thank you!

Best regards,
Nelson
