[Bug 1749942] Re: Smokeping 2.6.11-4 probe FPing is not compatible with fping 4.0 when setting sourceaddress option.
Bionic currently has fping 4.0-6 and smokeping 2.6.11-4. So unfortunately the buggy smokeping version combined with the more recent fping version break smokeping's detection: "FPing: WARNING: your fping binary doesn't support source address setting (-S), I will ignore any sourceaddress configurations - see http://bugs.debian.org/198486.; How can we get this fix released into an updated smokeping package for Bionic so it can work correctly with fping? ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #198486 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=198486 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1749942 Title: Smokeping 2.6.11-4 probe FPing is not compatible with fping 4.0 when setting sourceaddress option.

Hello Gabriel, thanks for your work on this bug! There are two points that need to be looked at prior to this change being sponsored. Since you asked about the version number, I will point you at the standard for versions in stable releases: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/UpdatePreparation#Update_the_packaging The second of which is that the bug description must be updated to follow the template for Stable Release Updates. You can find that here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#SRU_Bug_Template I am unsubscribing the Ubuntu Sponsors Team; please resubscribe the team when those two points are dealt with.

ook, 2nd trial. I've reapplied the same changes on the right version this time. so smokeping 2.6.11-4 I've allowed dch to make it version -4.1 since it's a divergence from -4 but -5 has already been released and is different. however, I don't know if this respects ubuntu's version numbering policy. please advise if I need to change this -- or even better, change the version number without my intervention :) ** Patch added: "this patch is based on the package in bionic" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/smokeping/+bug/1749942/+attachment/5249081/+files/smokeping-2.6.11-4.debdiff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1749942 Title: Smokeping 2.6.11-4 probe FPing is not compatible with fping 4.0 when setting sourceaddress option.

The attachment "Import two compatibility patches for fping 4.0" seems to be a debdiff. The ubuntu-sponsors team has been subscribed to the bug report so that they can review and hopefully sponsor the debdiff. If the attachment isn't a patch, please remove the "patch" flag from the attachment, remove the "patch" tag, and if you are member of the ~ubuntu-sponsors, unsubscribe the team.

Oh.. actually to completely fix smokeping's compatibility with smokeping we need also a second patch (which is actually addressing the original bug report *harrumpf*). Tobias, the upstream author fixed compatibility for the -O and -S options in the following patch, so it also needs to be included: https://github.com/oetiker/SmokePing/commit/72ed1570fbb4ae0b90846625e1a3bd5d2bade531 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1749942 Title: Smokeping 2.6.11-4 probe FPing is not compatible with fping 4.0 when setting sourceaddress option.

[Bug 1749942] Re: Smokeping 2.6.11-4 probe FPing is not compatible with fping 4.0 when setting sourceaddress option.
Hi there! I've recently started co-maintaining the smokeping package in debian with Antoine Beaupré and I've worked on updating the package to 2.7.3. it was recently brought to my attention (on the smokeping users mailing list) that this bug existed in the ubuntu version of smokeping. This bug is specific to bionic (at least in terms of ubuntu LTS releases) because the version of smokeping shipped in bionic is not compatible with the version of fping. I've written a fix for upstream that was merged before 2.7.3 was released, and so I believe that by cherry-picking this patch we'd be fixing the issue for ubuntu. The patch in question is here: https://github.com/oetiker/SmokePing/commit/681457d0872057f79e2b2f97fa6ff8b6b415b48c I'm currently trying to figure out how to produce a debdiff for easier consumption by someone that can push a change to ubuntu. If I don't send a debdiff this week-end though and someone is able to easily integrate the above patch in the package, then please do go ahead and don't wait for my input! I'll try and do my best to format this during the week-end though. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1749942 Title: Smokeping 2.6.11-4 probe FPing is not compatible with fping 4.0 when setting sourceaddress option.
