The tcping we have in Buildroot, in version 1.3.5 is from Marc
Kirchner, and he now has a Github at
https://github.com/mkirchner/tcping, where he has both the 1.3.5 and
even a newer 1.3.6 release.

So it seems like the best course of action for this package is to
switch to using this Github repository as the upstream (and of course
not just update Config.in, but also the .mk file and the version).

Thanks!

Thomas
