Ask about ping on VyOS 1.5

[xitepo]

Hallo guys, i want to ask about ping, i use vyos 1.5, and i will to ping a address with source-address, but in vyos 1.5 i cannot run ping x.x.x.x source-address x.x.x.x. In vyos 1.4 i can ping x.x.x.x source-address x.x.x.x. Anyone can help me guys? Does version 1.5 no longer provide ping with the source-address option?

My 1.5-rolling (VyOS 1.5-rolling-202311081451) have ability to select source-address, however its a bit buggy when it comes to vrf (there is a task for the brokeness of vrf when it comes to DNS lookups etc):

vyos@vyos:~$ ping ping.sunet.se 
Possible completions:

If you got vrf going you probably need to run the command as:

ip vrf exec ${VRF} ${CMD}

or manually do a “force vrf ${VRF}” and then run the command as is like “ping ping.sunet.se”.

Here is the task I had in mind:
