Thanks Sebastien for getting back to me. Tools like arping are used as helpers within other tools or scripts. A very important point of integration is the return code. Something returning non-zero is considered to have failed. It's simply not an option to sell people to add multiple lines of code as workaround for something that is only valid for this version.
Returning the correct return code is just the correct way of handling this issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1953014 Title: Return code for unsolicited arping is 1 instead of 0 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/iputils/+bug/1953014/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
