Look at how NetworkManager uses arping, and either make arping compatible with it, or make NetworkManager compatible with arping.

At least as of Ubuntu 18.04, installation of arping very much does not result in uninstallation of network-manager.

Apparently network-manager is no longer shelling out to arping: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=820697
