-ns1.google.com (8.8.8.8):
+ns2.google.com (8.8.8.8):

-ns2.google.com (8.8.8.8):
-Host is up.

It will be better to see only
-ns1.google.com (8.8.8.8):

Good catch! The simplest way to do this would be to fix the check for equality and sort order for hosts. Add a __cmp__ rich comparison operator for the Host class that will only consider hosts equal if:

  1. they have the same IP address (IPv4 or IPv6) AND
  2. they have the same hostname or one of them does not have a hostname.

Then the host_pairs function could just compare hosts directly instead of calling get_id on each before comparing.
