Package: zabbix Version: 1:1.6.4-2 Severity: important Tags: patch The zabbix package provides a configuration file which is missing the location of fping6. For some reason the 'pinger' program will actually use fping6 even if only Ipv4 networks are defined for discovery.
Please patch the configuration provided by the package with the attached patch.
