Package: fping
Version: 3.10-2
Severity: normal

I was trying to get fping to work in a docker container and have created a
minimal base image with debootstrap.

After I installed fping I could not start it:

# fping
# echo $?
4

Running strace on fping I noticed this line just before exiting:

open("/etc/protocols", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or 
directory)

/etc/protocols seems to be provided by netbase, which is not installed in my 
minimal docker image.

After I install netbase I can use fping again.
