Package: python-ping Version: 0.2-1 Architecture: all Maintainer: Kristina Clair Installed-Size: 76 Depends: python, python-support (>= 0.90.0) Provides: python2.5-ping, python2.6-ping Section: python Priority: optional Description: An implementation of ICMP ping in Python This library is a fork of George Notaras' python-ping library, which is an implementation of the standard ICMP ping in pure Python. . As it uses raw ICMP sockets, you need to be root to use the functions exported by the ping module. . This fork by Pierre Bourdon adds a setup.py file in order to permit an easier distribution of the package. The license of the library remains unchanged (GPLv2), see COPYING. Python-Version: 2.5, 2.6
