`ping6` does not exist on my system (`iputils 20250605-1`)
`gping -6` fails otherwise.
```
$ gping -6 example.com
Error: Error spawning ping: No such file or directory (os error 2)
Caused by:
No such file or directory (os error 2)
```
Note: Probably don't need to modify the BusyBox command.
However, `busybox ping` supports the same `-4/-6` flags:
```
$ busybox ping --help
...
-4,-6 Force IP or IPv6 name resolution
```

@orf Do you mind reviewing this PR? Without it, I have to copy around a self-compiled to newer systems. Thanks! |
