Dependency: fetch binary
What is this binary? I could not find any package providing this… I need it for debian (Raspbian) and CentOS 7.
Thanks, jarif

FWIW fetch is part of the FreeBSD base system. I don't think it's been
ported to Linux.

Sa-update will use curl, wget or fetch to download updates.
Because perl module LWP does not support IPv6, sa-update as of
3.4.0 will use these standard programs to download rule updates
leaving LWP as a fallback if none of the programs are found.
*IMPORTANT NOTE*: You only need one of these programs
It's only a concern if you are warned about all 3
i.e. (curl, wget & fetch) missing

It's a core FreeBSD utility used to fetch remote files.

As Kevin noted, you do not.
