- Name: iputils
- Homepage: https://github.com/iputils/iputils
- It should be included because of the additional network diagnostic utilities that inetutils doesn't offer. Mainly arping, traceroute6 and tracepath.
- It is open source.
- Source code of the latest release is: https://github.com/iputils/iputils/archive/s20190709.tar.gz
- I anticipate that many users will use it for network diagnostics. Including everyone who wants a more decent ping command ?
Note: The information above refers to a fork of the original iputils. This fork is also tracked by (at least) Debian, Fedora and Gentoo.
