<para>
This program has long history. Author of <command/traceroute/
is Van Jacobson and it first appeared in 1988. This clone is
based on a port of <command/traceroute/ to IPv6 published
in NRL IPv6 distribution in 1996. In turn, it was ported
to Linux by Pedro Roque. After this it was kept in sync by
<ulink url="mailto:kuznet@ms2.inr.ac.ru">Alexey Kuznetsov
<kuznet@ms2.inr.ac.ru></ulink>. And eventually entered
<command/iputils/ package.
