It looks like Debian is packaging git checkouts. I didn't look at what
repo they are of, but Debian also names this Sourceforge page as
upstream's home-page:
https://packages.debian.org/stretch/net/net-tools
http://sourceforge.net/projects/net-tools/

The repo is 10 years old and seems to be actively maintained. We should
see if it is suitable for packaging.
