82 collectd (4.4.2-2) unstable; urgency=low
84 * Removed the work around for #474087 (broken openipmi .pc files) introduced
85 in 4.4.1-1 and instead build depend on libopenipmi-dev (>= 2.0.14-1~)
86 which includes fixed .pc files. This fixes an undefined symbol error when
87 loading the ipmi plugin caused by that work around (Closes: #494665).
88 * debian/collectd.init.d:
89 - The "status" command now exits with 1 if collectd is not running.
90 - Do not suppress output when checking the configuration with the -t
91 command line option. This will also show errors that don't cause
92 collectd to abort, e.g. failure to load plugins (Closes: #499232).
93 * debian/control:
94 - Added librrd-dev as the preferred option to the librrd2-dev build
95 dependency - the latter one is a virtual package since rrdtool 1.3.

104 * Added debian/patches/memcached_fdleak.dpatch - trivial upstream patch to
105 fix a possible file descriptor leak in the memcached plugin.
106 * Added debian/patches/memcached_timeout.dpatch - trivial upstream patch to
107 fix the timeout passed to poll(2).

111 collectd (4.4.2-1) unstable; urgency=low
113 * New upstream release.
114 * Removed librrd0-dev and libmysqlclient14-dev from the build-dependencies -
115 those package are no longer available since Etch.
116 * Removed byacc from the build-dependencies - collectd now requires bison.
117 * Removed libupsclient-config.sh - upstream now supports pkg-config for
118 libupsclient.
119 * Include collection3 in /usr/share/doc/collectd/examples/:
120 - Updated README.Debian to point the collection3's README.
121 - Added libconfig-general-perl to the suggested packages.
122 * README.Debian: Added a note about how to get collectd2html.pl working with
123 version 4 of collectd.
124 * Added debian/patches/myplugin_strcpy.dpatch - use sstrncpy() instead of
125 strcpy() which is poisoned in collectd.h.
126 * collectd.overrides: Removed shlib-with-non-pic-code for nut.so - the
127 plugin now links against the shared libupsclient.
128 * Do not compress any example files, so they may be used directly.

132 collectd (4.4.1-2) unstable; urgency=low
134 * Restrict libcurl4-gnutls-dev build dependency to versions which are not
135 affected by #488701 (Closes: #489091).
136 * Added linux-libc-dev (<< 2.6.25-1) as an option to the linux-libc-dev
137 (>= 2.6.25-4) build dependency - those versions are not affected by
138 #479899.
139 * Added build dependency on pkg-config - this is used by collectd's
140 configure script to check for a couple of libraries.
141 * Added libupsclient-config.sh to imitate libupsclient-config which is no
142 longer available. libupsclient-config.sh is a simple wrapper around
143 pkg-config. This is a workaround until upstream supports pkg-config for
144 libupsclient.
145 * Replaced nut-dev build dependency with libupsclient1-dev:
146 Reenabled the "nut" plugin on all architectures.

168 - Added /usr/share/doc/collectd/examples/iptables/.
169 - Added build dependency on linux-libc-dev (>= 2.6.25-4) - that version is

172 - gl.po, thanks to Jacobo Tarrio (Closes: #482667).
173 * Added a work around for #474087 (broken openipmi .pc files) by forcing the
174 inclusion of the ipmi plugin and manually specifying the dependencies.

204 i386 and powerpc (libvirt is only available on those architectures).

224 * Updated package description to mention the monitoring support.
