Description James Morris 2006-04-27 14:33:52 UTC
Description of problem:

The traceroute currently in FC5 has regressed and does not have an -I option
allowing ICMP packets to be sent instead of UDP.

This is important in circumstances where UDP and packets are filtered and/or
handled differently.  It also breaks all existing scripts and applications using -I.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

traceroute-1.0.4-1.2

How reproducible:

Run traceroute with -I option.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. traceroute -I somewhere
2.
3.
  
Actual results:

traceroute: invalid option -- I
usage: traceroute [-nFV] [-f first_ttl] [-m max_hops] [-p port]
           [-s source_addr] [-i interface] [-g gateway]
           [-t tos] [-w timeout] [-q nqueries] host [packetlen]

Expected results:

For it to work.
