Package: mrtg-ping-probe Version: 2.1.0-1 Severity: important The ping program from the netkit-ping package requires root permissions for option -s:
$ /bin/ping -s 56 -c 10 127.0.0.1 ping: Operation not permitted So either the option -s should be removed for Debian or better you make the mrtg-ping-probe package dependent on iputils-ping only (at the moment it depends on netkit-ping or iputils-ping).
