Hello

On upgrading, my Zabbix server started to wrongly report every host as up.
According to other info I've found, it's very similar to Zabbix issue
ZBX-18365 [1] , where Zabbix misinterprets fping's output as of fping 5.0 ,
but it should have been fixed as of Zabbix 5.0.5 . This particular
installation has OpenBSD -release on an amd64 virtual machine with
syspatches, with Zabbix and fping from pkg_add . A workaround mentioned for
other OS's was to downgrade fping 5 to fping 4 , but I haven't tried that
yet; so far, I have rolled back to 6.7 .

Is this issue reported elsewhere for OpenBSD? How could I pin fping so it
doesn't upgrade on pkg_add -u ? Would it be "canon" to graft in an old
/usr/local/sbin/fping ?

Old versions:
* OpenBSD 6.7
* Zabbix 4.0.19 from pkg_add
* fping 4.2 from pkg_add

New versions:
* OpenBSD 6.8
* Zabbix 5.0.5 from pkg_add
* fping 5.0 from pkg_add
