Hello,
I can implement it. I suppose that ping6's manual page should be kept it
this case.
I was also thinking about printing a warning for each option renamed to
lead a willing user to use the new unified option set of ping. It could
be either only with -v, or by default and suppressed with -q. Or should
the option translation be completely transparent?
Is there an update on this? I found out the hard way today, as I updated
my icinga2 host from an revision before this change to a current
revision. In this case it's not as easy as fixing a script e.g.
net-mgmt/monitoring-plugins check_ping command calls /sbin/ping6 with -X.
Will we get a ping6 that is fully backward compatible, or should we
start fixing ports?
Thanks,
Florian
Still a work in progress, though there hasn't been any progress lately.

Wouldn't it make since to back the breaking change out until the fixing
work in process can be completed?
I have been a bit busy lately, but I think I will be able to make some
progress with the backward compatibility in the next days. Stay tuned.
