Comment # 12 on bug 1194156 from Petr Vorel

Well, I do understand of iputils background (I'm an upstream maintainer).

But I'm not really the expert on openSUSE packaging and upgrading (I use
Tumbleweed myself), thus I'm not sure how I can help.

Although version in Tumbleweed does not require CAP_NET_RAW since last year
(https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/840044 and #1174504), Leap 15.3
inherits quite old version s20161105, where we still used CAP_NET_RAW instead
of ICMP_PROTO (although ICMP_PROTO is supported by kernel thus it could be
used).

But I guess this error is due using cap_net_raw+ep instead of just
cap_net_raw+p.
See related bug #1140993 and change in Tumbleweed in "Fri Jul 26 06:19:44 UTC
2019":

- With new permissions package both clockdiff and ping have capabilities
  cap_net_raw+p instead of cap_net_raw+ep (boo#1140993), also ping6 does not
  try to set permissions on links (boo#1140991)
