Does anybody know who or what changes my ping utility ? Is this a known bug
(I couldn't find anything) ?
I just found the package 'prelink' which explain the changes of my ping (and

I just found this:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-qa-packages/2014/02/msg00132.html

for reference).
Thanks again for all your help !

user. Like here:
