Package: arping
Version: 2.07~pre1-2

All versions prior to 2.07 (and this includes 2.07pre1) that have a bug with address resolving. This bug causes arpings to a hostname to sometimes fail silently while arpinging the IP address works fine.

I am the upstream author and this has been fixed for a long time. The code change from 2.07pre1 and 2.07 is pretty much just this, and the only change from 2.07 to 2.08 for code that is compiled for Linux is the version number, so I recommend (and ask) that lenny gets arping 2.08 because I periodically get bug reports about this.
