Heads up: nc replaced by nmap ncat

Dear list,

The old Fedora, heavily patched OpenBSD nc package was just
obsoleted by the nmap ncat implementation, available as the
nmap-ncat subpackage.  Those are mostly compatible and this
change shouldn't cause much headache but please check your
netcat dependant scripts or apps.

Related bug: #226187

Thanks to Michal Hlavinka for this.
