Neither libpcap nor tcptraceroute have been updated since Mageia 8 was released so this looks like it was introduced during Mageia 8 development. Surprising that no-one has reported this previously. Assigning to all packagers as neither package has a dedicated maintainer. Setting the priority to low as the message is cosmetic.
