Hi,
inetutils-1.7-1 is in testing. Upstream ChangeLog below. Important
package change is that the rexec binary in the package is now the new
one from inetutils (the inetutils in core use the one from netkit).
Please test and signoff.
Eric
=============
December 16, 2009
Version 1.7:
* ping
New option --timeout=N, stop sending packets after N seconds.
* New logger implementation
The `logger' utility has been rewritten from scratch. The new
implementation offers many new facilities. In particular, it
is able to send messages to system loggers on remote machines, and
to supply the PID number to include in messages, instead of the
PID of the `logger' process.
* Restore the traditional behavior of ping without -c option.
* The manual is now licensed under the GNU FDL version 1.3 or later.
* rexec
New program.
* tftp
Command line parsing now uses argp.
* Man pages for all tools are generated using help2man.
