Package: iputils-ping
Version: 3:20020927-3
Severity: important
Tags: patch
netkit-base (netkit-ping) is due for removal from unstable and testing
(see #383960).
Please could you provide a transitional package to ensure netkit-ping
users are upgraded to iputils-ping when they upgrade to etch? This
could be as simple as adding the following to debian/control:
Package: netkit-inetd
Architecture: any
Section: net
Depends: iputils-ping (>= ${Source-Version})
Description: The ping utility from netkit (transitional package)
This is a transitional package to migrate existing users of netkit-inetd
to iputils-ping (its successor). It may be safely removed after upgrading.
Thanks,
Roger
