Traceroute #164

Hello, Is it possible to have the command traceroute? I tried the installation with “pip install traceroute”. After the installation, the command traceroute returns “command not found”.

Thanks

Hi, traceroute requires superuser (root) privilege, so it's not possible to install it on iOS. There is tracepath, which has similar functionality but does not require superuser privilege, but its source code is very specific to Linux.
