Details

ping6 is not available on archlinux (has it ever been ?)

so the /usr/lib/munin/plugins/ping_ plugin of munin-node fails when using ipv6 like in /etc/munin/plugins/ping6_2606:4700:4700::1111

# munin-run "ping6_2606:4700:4700::1111"
/etc/munin/plugins/ping6_2606:4700:4700::1111: line 94: ping6: command not found

the fix is simple and it needs a one character patch:

```
--- /usr/lib/munin/plugins/ping_ 2019-12-07 20:04:17.263575467 +0100
+++ /usr/lib/munin/plugins/ping_ 2019-12-07 19:56:01.635908455 +0100
@@ -59,7 +59,7 @@

case $0 in
*ping6_*)
- PING=ping6
+ PING=ping
file_host=${0##*/ping6_}
V=IPv6
;;
```

This was a change made upstream years ago, ping6 became ping -6. munin upstream should look into that.
