]]>ping works with IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. Why do you need an additional ping utility?
I'm unable to ping ipv6 using ping. Currently using ArchoLinux 19.02.4, Kernel 4.20.13. Please help.
getting this message below
ping 2001:4860:4860::8844
connect: Network is unreachable
If there are still references to it on the Arch wiki, feel free to fix them up.
]]>1) It's not mentioned on the IPv6 wiki page ( https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/IPv6 )
2) pacman -Fo /usr/bin/ping6 gives no results
3) pacman -Fo /usr/sbin/ping6 gives no results
4) pacman -Fs ping6 gives only extra/bash-completion 2.8-1
5) Googling "arch linux install ping6", "ping6 arch linux" and various combinations give no results that tell me the required package name
6) There is no AUR package called ping6, though I'd expect this utility to be in the official repositories
My questions are: Firstly, why don't the pacman commands above tell me which package is required? Secondly, why is it so difficult to find this utility? It's mentioned on several wiki pages (e.g. the IPv6 page) but there is no documentation about how to install it.
Which package is it that I am missing?
