Description James Hogarth 2017-09-26 14:27:00 UTC 
On linux the net-tools suite of utilities has been long since deprecated.

The relevant code that gets executed on Fedora and EPEL should be identified and patched out, with a suitable pull request upstream, to remove the dependency on any tool in the net-tools package and instead use suitable tools form iproute2.
