Dear maintainer,

arp-scan is no longer returning any results in Debian sid.

With wireshark I can actually see arp replies (and it sounds like they
were also received ("14 packets received")),
With another machine that is running buster I can still see the
results, so it could have been introduced by a different libpcap version?

After noticing that the bug has also been filed in Ubuntu [0],
I also tested the version from git and got it running successfully.
This is the first commit at which it is returning results again: [1].
It is contained in the new upstream release 1.9.6.

Kind regards,
  Reiner
