You have been subscribed to a public bug by Clint Byrum (clint-fewbar):
With trusty, /bin/ping relies on having extended attributes and kernel
capabilities to gain the cap_net_raw+p capability. This allows removing
the suid bit.
However, the tarball cloud images do not preserve the extended
attributes, and thus /bin/ping does not work on a system derived from
them.
** Affects: iputils (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
