[Bug 833546] Re: iputils-arping conflicts with package arping because of same name
Arping & iputils-arping conflict each other; that's it. Note that latest arping's update was in 2014/10 and should have been removed from the archive, as per the Debian solution found to resolve such issue: an old question/answer some years ago (by the arping dev): In the past there were some attempts to include arping into the Fedora Package Collection. At the moment there is an issue with the name. iputils contains a tool that is called arping and this ends with a name conflict. The suggestion was to rename your arping to arping-ng for the package name. Have you ever thought about renaming your tool or are there any objections about renaming it from your side? From my point of view it would be the best way to make the name change upstream to avoid confusion the users. • Reply•Share › Avatar Thomas Habets Mod Fabian Affolter • 6 years ago Debian solved this by creating a new package called iputils-arping that contains that arping and have this arping be in the package "arping". I will not rename Arping since this is just a minor issue on Linux. I have no problem with it being named something else in Fedora, except several other OSs have *this* program with the name "arping", so it could cause more confusion than already exists. http://www.habets.pp.se/synscan/programs.php?prog=arping -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/833546 Title: iputils-arping conflicts with package arping because of same name To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/arping/+bug/833546/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 833546] Re: iputils-arping conflicts with package arping because of same name
Ran just into it myself: This is really a serous issue as it completely breaks the IP network. An unexperienced user is getting doomed here. I suggest, you just remove all the rdepends from the arping package. This will prevent uninstalling the iputils package with all its dependencies. As arping's binary installs in /usr/sbin/, iputil's arping will not be harmed, both will live together peacefully. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/833546 Title: iputils-arping conflicts with package arping because of same name To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/arping/+bug/833546/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

dino99, A new version is no reason to close this bug, it still exists even for the new version of the package (as far as I can see) Also closing it as Invalid is not the correct course of action either, the bug was and still is a Valid bug.

[Bug 833546] Re: iputils-arping conflicts with package arping because of same name
You can ignore my previous post; there is a typo in arpping (arping is correct). Anyway, I installed arping package and that broke my notebook connectivity (network manager offered only bluetooth HW but refused to control WiFi or ETH hardware. When I tried to configure networks from Unity setting, there was an error: The system network services are not compatible with this version I fixed this by uninstalling arping package and force reinstall network- manger. This was bad bug, it cost me more than an hour to fix my notebook. Another really bad bug is disabling WiFi card when you disable WiFi in Network Manager. You can disable, it is easy but it is really difficult to reenable it; WiFI is dead even in Windows... Command rfkill can address this issue but it is tricky, you have to try it again and again... BTW, notebook is HP NC4200. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/833546 Title: iputils-arping conflicts with package arping because of same name To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/arping/+bug/833546/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
