I think you need to install it, can't remember which repo it was in, but the command to invoke it is the full "traceroute foo.com".

You need to activate another repo, I think.

See the links in my post here: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...473#post433473 for how to do that.

Edit: actually, it's best to do this where you can, because install via dpkg doesn't apply the rules that delete stuff installed into /usr/share/doc/ as apt-get and the package manager do. If you do install via dpkg, take a look at /var/lib/dpkg/info/<package>.list and see what's been put where. With rootfs space so critical, it pays to be very careful..

Anyway, if you install the tools repo, I think you should see stuff like traceroute returned from apt-cache search.

It would need to be one that was compiled for the ARM/ARMEL processor, I believe.

if you enable tools repo http://wiki.maemo.org/Documentation/devtools/maemo5 you should be able to see it with apt-cache search and install it with apt-get

hav a look at http://maemo.kluenter.de
there is mtr-tiny in that repository which is far better than traceroute. I built it and it works great.
But be careful. This is my personal repository. Ther is some crap in there too.
