Hello, The Homepage url of the package has being hijacked. Maybe it should be removed from debian/control. Sophie
Dear maintainer, I've prepared an NMU for hping3 (versioned as 3.a2.ds2-10.2). The debian/control file has the homepage field commented out, so that it no longer shows up in packages.d.o and tracker.d.o and elsewhere as a clickable link. The homepage still remains in package documentation such as the manpage and elsewhere in the package.
