The ping binary will be from iputils anyway since it's installed in
/run/wrappers/bin/ (first in $PATH) and tftpd will be from iputils as
well since inetutils installs it into libexec (not in $PATH).

Therefore, there's not even a real choice here (though we should most
likely prefer iputils anyway).

Current collisions:
collision between /nix/store/...-iputils-20190709/bin/ping' and /nix/store/...-inetutils-1.9.4/bin/ping'
collision between /nix/store/...-iputils-20190709/share/man/man8/tftpd.8.gz' and /nix/store/...-inetutils-1.9.4/share/man/man8/tftpd.8.gz'

Motivation for this change
Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.
