checksec says: fping 19738 Partial RELRO Canary found NX enabled No PIE http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines If your package meets any of the following criteria you MUST enable the PIE compiler flags: Your package is long running. This means it's likely to be started and keep running until the machine is rebooted, not start on demand and quit on idle. Your package has suid binaries, or binaries with capabilities. Your package runs as root. If your package meets the following criteria you should consider enabling the PIE compiler flags: Your package accepts/processes untrusted input.
any news here? "you MUST enable the PIE compiler flags if Your package has suid binaries, or binaries with capabilities" is pretty clear [root@srv-rhsoft:~]$ getcap /usr/sbin/fping /usr/sbin/fping = cap_net_raw+ep

as you can see this bugreport is for F18 builds for F19/F20 does not help me much http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=1758
Build for F18 in progress now. People get upset at me if I push to stable Fedora too quickly so don't be surprised if I wait until the package bakes in rawhide for awhile, then push an update to F19, then push an update to F18.
i understand this, but i am looking at koji at least twice a day and in case of bugreports it is always a good idea if the release the reporter is using get the first koji build because he will most likely be the first tester and using the package in question :-)
