Details

Description:

Package iputils contains (among others):

etc/init.d/
etc/init.d/ninfod.sh
etc/xinetd.d/
etc/xinetd.d/tftp

This is Arch Linux. Old style init scripts have long gone. Same applies for xinetd. Both functionalities (service managemant and on-demand service startup due to connection request) are now covered by systemd.

Please remove the above mentioned outdated directories and files from the package. Optionally add some service and socket files for systemd replacing the former functionality of the ninfod init script and xinetd configuration for tftp.

Additional info:

* version 20190709-3
