Package: gnome-nettool
Version: 3.2.0-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
When attempting to use Ping, having installed iputils-ping, I got the
following message:
An error occurred when try to run 'Ping'
/bin/ping ping -b -c 5 -n www.google.com
It seems that the tool adds an extra word (ping) rendering the ping
functionality unusable.
This problem has also been reported in Ubuntu:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-nettool/+bug/1011367
A proper resolution should also consider the bug #639158 :
