It's now fixed upstream with https://gitlab.com/stevenshiau/clonezilla/-/commit/640dbe42c1fdc8781d633edc256a35b925865887 and therefor now checking for nc.traditional as I suggested. The fix is part of the v5.15.5 release of clonezilla, so once the clonezilla Debian package gets updated, this issue can be fixed together with a depend/recommend/suggest on netcat-traditional. regards -mika-
