Fw: echoping: New upstream release (but not obvious to package)



Johnny, 

Do we have a good solution for this?  

I think so: I think echoping can list a bunch of dependencies in
src.Options that can be overridden in site.Options.

echoping 6 is out:

http://echoping.sourceforge.net/

But it is more complicated to package since it now introduces dynamic
plugins. Several plugins are shipped with echoping, for instance the
PostgreSQL one. It is probably not wise to make echoping depend on
PostgreSQL package. I do not know a solution yet.

Also, in order to enable plugin compilation on the machine where the
package is installed, it could be a good idea to install echoping.h
and compilation.h somewhere. 6.0.1, due "real soon now" will install
in $PREFIX/include/echoping.
