I've had some contact with the maintainer.
He advised netperfmeter 1.2.3 is quite old.
Debian testing and unstable have much newer versions and shouldn't have
this problem.

netperfmeter is not in buster-backports at the moment.

Can we get a newer version of netperfmeter added to buster or
buster-backports?

This is the first Debian bug I've reported; please be gentle.
Much respect for the work you do.

Zac Wolff
