I do agree, in context of Debian policy though serious is warranted as
it makes the package fail to build. But yes, if there would not have a
quick solution, and known that it is only the test which is broken,
then we could not run the testsuite as workaround and fixing the
issue.

In any case, thanks for your fast bugfix, amazing :)

libcheck made a breaking change.
Patch for arping to make it build:
https://github.com/ThomasHabets/arping/commit/e0773bc26ae14d4a19825023307d1496d7c7d0f1

I aim to release 2.22 tomorrow with this change.
But there are no changes between 2.21 and 2.22, so you can just patch in
the commit, if you prefer.

I see the tag is set to "serious". To be clear this is a failure of the
TEST to compile only. I agree that this should be seen as serious, but it's
just the test.
