[gnome-network] Bug#699828: gnome-nettool: Ping not compatible with iputils-ping



Package: gnome-nettool
Version: 3.2.0-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

When attempting to use Ping, having installed iputils-ping, I got the
following message:

An error occurred when try to run 'Ping'
/bin/ping ping -b -c 5 -n www.google.com


It seems that the tool adds an extra word (ping) rendering the ping
functionality unusable.
This problem has also been reported in Ubuntu:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-nettool/+bug/1011367

A proper resolution should also consider the bug #639158 :
