Hello,

afaiui ping6.c is released under BSD 4 clause license with advertising
clause. OTOH it is using at least one GPL library (gnutls-openssl):

gcc -g -O2 -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -Wformat 
-Werror=format-security -O3 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wall -D_GNU_SOURCE  
-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2  -c ping6.c -DCAPABILITIES    -DUSE_GNUTLS -o ping6.o
gcc -Wl,-z,relro  ping6.o ping_common.o  -lcap  -lresolv -lgnutls-openssl   -o 
ping6

Since these two licenses are incompatible the resulting binary is not
distributable.

cu Andreas
