[hobbit] ping trouble

On my hobbit web display I have these errors that cause it to turn red.

PING 159.105.x.x (159.105.x.x) 56(84) bytes of data.

--- 159.105.x.x ping statistics ---
1 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 0ms

Did I somehow build hobbit without fping?  and it is falling back on ping?
