+ Feature:
- Enable missing ipv6 support
- update to 3.4
- add ipv6 support (bnc#555691)
- removed bogus self-provides
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/network:utilities/fping?expand=0&rev=56
- update to 5.0:
- In non-quiet loop and count mode, a line is printed for every lost packet
8.8.8.8 : xmt/rcv/%loss = 2/2/0%, min/avg/max = 12.3/12.5/12.8
8.8.8.7 : xmt/rcv/%loss = 2/0/100%
- The returned size in bytes now always excludes the IP header, so if before it
reported '84 bytes' e.g. when using 'fping -l', now it reports '64 bytes'.
This is to make the reported size consistent with ping(8) from iputils and
also with fping when pinging a IPv6 host (which never included the IPv6
header size).
- The number of sent pings is only counted when the pings are received or have
timed out, ensuring that the loss ratio will be always correct. This makes it
possible, for example, to use loop mode (-l) with interval statistics (-Q)
and a timeout larger than period, without having the issue that initially
some pings would be reported as missing (#193)
- Improved precision of measurements from 10us to 1us (#136, thanks @tycho)
- The reported size of received packets is now always correct on Linux even for
packets > 4096 bytes.

- Update to version 3.9:
+ Fix random output on socket error (#56).
+ Support ppc64le architecture by including alpha libtool
version.
+ Fix compilation problem on FreeBSD (#57).
+ Initial test suite and continous intergration (with
travis-ci.org / coveralls.io).
+ Don't output usage information on error.
- Changes from version 3.8:
+ Fix segmentation fault introduced in version 3.7 with loop mode
(#55).
- Changes from version 3.7:
+ Allow running as non-root on Mac OS X by using non-privileged
ICMP (#7).
+ Remove unnecessary IPv6 socket options.
+ Fix again compatibility issue with FreeBSD.
+ Fix fping hanging forever on permanent sendto failure.
+ Fix duplicate echo reply packets causing early stop in count
mode (#53).
- Changes from version 3.6:
+ Fix loop issue after 65536 pings (#12).
+ Minimum ping data size is now 0.
+ Removed setsockopt IPV6_CHECKSUM, which shouldn't be set and
breaks compiling on Solaris.
+ Fix wrong min RTT value with -Q option (#51).
- Drop export CFLAGS="%optflags -D_GNU_SOURCE -fwhole-program", it
breaks the build.
