Hi Sven, Thanks for your report!
arp-scan is an admin command. It is installed (by default) in /usr/sbin/, this directory is not in the $PATH of a normal user. Personally, I don't think it's a good idea for a non-privileged user to execute administrator commands, although it's a matter of preference. In my opinion, this is fine this way and this bug should be closed.
