Bug Description
Binary package hint: iputils-ping
The man page suggests that the -Q option should set the Traffic Class octet in the IPv6 header. However when -Q is used, the following error is given:
$ ping6 -Q 0x02 ::1
Flowinfo is not supported.
This is probably an upstream issue, but I'm not sure how to feed this back to whoever they are.
