7 * debian/patches/:
8 - Removed ipvs_h_include.dpatch -- applied upstream.

12 providing the patch (Closes: #656271).
13 - Don't force building of the ipvs plugin. The ip_vs.h check has been
14 fixed in configure.

49 by policy.
50 * debian/patches/ipvs_h_include, debian/rules:
51 - Let the ipvs plugin use linux/ip_vs.h rather than net/ip_vs.h. Also,
52 make sure to look for the header in /usr/include rather than the kernel
53 directory (which has been deprecated).
54 - Force building of the ipvs plugin since configure is not currently able
55 to correctly check for ip_vs.h.

159 - OpenVZ statistics: OpenVZ (Perl based plugin)
160 - Embedding a Python interpreter: python
161 - Query statistics from RouterOS: routeros (disabled in Debian;
162 librouteros is not available)
163 New matches:
164 - Match values using a hash function of the hostname: hashed
165 New targets:
166 - Scale (multiply) values: scale
167 * debian/control:
168 - Build-depend on "python-dev", required to build the "python" plugin.
169 * debian/collectd-core.install:
170 - Install all collectd-*.5 manpages (in particular, this includes the
171 newly added collectd-python.5).
172 * Added support for kfreebsd-{i386,amd64}; see below for details
173 (Closes: #566521).
174 * debian/control, debian/rules:
175 - Disabled the following Linux-specific plugins / removed the following
176 build-deps on kfreebsd-{i386,amd64}:
177 + "iptables" plugin / iptables-dev
178 + "ipvs" plugin / linux-libc-dev
179 + "madwifi" plugin
180 + "netlink" plugin / iproute-dev
181 + "sensors" plugin / libsensors4-dev
182 + "vserver" plugin
183 - Disabled the following plugins / removed the following build-deps on
184 kfreebsd-{i386,amd64} -- the build-deps are (not yet) available on
185 kfreebsd:
186 + "gmond" plugin / libganglia1-dev
187 + "libvirt" plugin / libvirt-dev
188 + "java" plugin / openjdk6-jdk
189 - Enabled the "rrdcached" plugin and build-depend on librrd-dev (>= 1.4~)
190 (and removed the optional build-dep on librrd2-dev).
191 - Enabled the "tokyotyrant" plugin (except on kfreebsd-{i386,amd64}) and
192 build-depend on libtokyotyrant-dev (which is not available on kfreebsd).
193 Also, build-depend on libtokyocabinet-dev to work around a missing
194 dependency in libtokyotyrant-dev (see #566584).
195 * debian/rules:
196 - Disabled the following plugins on kfreebsd-{i386,amd64} which have not
197 yet been ported to FreeBSD: battery, conntrack, contextswitch, cpufreq,
198 disk, entropy, fscache, irq, nfs, protocols, serial, thermal, vmem,
199 wireless.
200 - Simplified Java archdir mapping: removed entries "pointing" to
201 themselves and let those default to DEB_BUILD_ARCH.
202 - Check whether all patches have been enabled; fail, if not.
203 * debian/patches:
204 - Added bts566199_collection_hide_types.dpatch -- added ability to hide

215 collectd (4.8.2-1) unstable; urgency=medium
217 * New upstream release:
218 - Now using libtool 2.
219 * Set urgency to medium because of the fix for #559801.
220 * Split the "collectd" binary package into "collectd-core" and "collectd".
221 The former provides the main program file and the plugins while the latter
222 provides the configuration. This allows for much more flexible setups
223 (e.g. providing customizations on top of "collectd-core" without modifying
224 the "collectd" package) and, amongst others, removes the hard dependency
225 on librrd (Closes: #495936, #544311).
226 * debian/collectd-core.collectd.init.d:
227 - Do not (try to) start collectd if the config file does not exist. Else,
228 installation of "collectd-core" (which does not provide configuration)
229 would fail.
230 * debian/collectd.postinst:
231 - Let the "collectd" package restart the daemon, since it provides the
232 config file.
233 * debian/collectd.links:
234 - Symlink /u/s/d/collectd/examples to /u/s/d/collectd-core/examples.
235 * debian/control:
236 - Build-depend on the right combination of libsnmp-dev and perl. Perl's
237 CFLAGS (included in net-snmp's CFLAGS) introduced '-fstack-protector' in
238 version 5.10.1 on some architectures (those supporting that features).
239 net-snmp has been fixed to handle that correctly in 5.4.2.1~dfsg-4;
240 thanks to Lamont Jones and Dann Frazier for reporting this
241 (Closes: #559087).
242 - Build-depend on libsensors4-dev rather than libsensors-dev. libsnmp-dev,
243 starting with version 5.4.2.1~dfsg-5, supports libsensors4, thus making
244 that possible. This restores the full functionality of the "sensors"
245 plugin, which does not work well with libsensors3 and lm-sensors-3;
246 thanks to Anssi Kolehmainen for reporting this (Closes: #538795).
247 - Build-depend on libltdl-dev to make it possible to use the system-wide
248 libltdl.
249 - No longer conflict/provide/replace the pre-Lenny "collectd-$plugin"
250 packages.
251 - Update the list of collectd-core's suggestions: added various services
252 providing data that may be collected by collectd. Downgraded lm-sensors
253 from a recommendation to a suggestion.
254 * debian/patches:
255 - Removed gmond-fix-compile-error.dpatch -- included upstream.
256 - Added bts561577_collectd2html_recursive_fix.dpatch -- fixed
257 collectd2html.pl's recursive mode and improved some defaults; thanks to
258 Yuri D'Elia for reporting this and providing a patch (Closes: #561577).
259 - Added bts557599_powerdns_fix.dpatch -- fixed communication to pdns
260 versions 2.9.22 and above; thanks to <tm@iprog.com> for reporting this
261 and Luke Heberling for providing the patch (Closes: #557599).
262 - Added bts559801_plugin_find_fix.dpatch -- make collectd resistant
263 against copies of libltdl affected by CVE-2009-3736. This fixes a
264 potential but very unlikely security issue, e.g. found in the embedded
265 copy. For details about how collectd might be affected, see
266 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=559801#15>; thanks to
267 Michael Gilbert for reporting this (Closes: #559801).
268 * debian/rules:
269 - Pass --without-included-ltdl to configure to tell libtool 2 to not use
270 the shipped libltdl but rather the one available in the system. Thus,
271 in the future, libltdl related issues do no longer require updated
272 collectd packages.
273 - Pass --disable-static to configure to tell libtool 2 to not build any
274 static libraries.
275 - Install debian/collectd.conf as an example into "collectd-core".
276 - Output the content of config.log if configure fails -- this might help
277 debugging.
278 * debian/README.Debian:
279 - Added a short explanation of the package split.

349 - Parse table-like structured files: table
350 - Power consumption measurements from "The Energy Detective" (TED): ted
351 - System uptime: uptime
352 * debian/rules:
353 - Install collectd-unixsock.py to /usr/share/doc/collectd/examples/.
354 - Pass CPPFLAGS and CFLAGS as arguments to configure instead of setting
355 them in the environment - this is the recommended way.
356 - Pass appropriate JAVAC, JAVA_CPPFLAGS and JAVA_LDFLAGS variables to
357 configure, using OpenJDK found in /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk. The
358 archdir mapping used by the openjdk-6 Debian package is used to find
359 libjvm.so in JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ARCHDIR/server.
360 - Use -rpath to tell the "java" plugin where to find libjvm.so.
361 - Pass --enable-all-plugins to configure to make sure that the build fails
362 if any prerequisites are missing.
363 * debian/control:
364 - Build-depend on openjdk-6-jdk.
365 - Build-depend on libganglia1-dev (>= 3), required by the gmond plugin.
366 - Build-depend on libgcrypt11-dev, used by the network plugin.
367 - Updated Standards-Version to 3.8.3 (no changes).
368 - Changed build-dependency libmysqlclient15-dev to libmysqlclient-dev -
369 this allows transitions to be handled thru binNMUs if possible.
370 * debian/collectd.install:
371 - Install collectd-java.5.
372 * debian/patches:
373 - Removed libcollectdclient_static_sstrerror.dpatch - included upstream.
374 - Added network-fix-cacheflush.dpatch - upstream patch to fix the handling
375 of the 'CacheFlush' config option of the "network" plugin.
376 - Added libvirt-reconnect.dpatch - upstream patch to let the "libvirt"
377 plugin re-connect to libvirtd if connecting fails.
378 - Added plugin-fix-unregister.dpatch - upstream patch to make

392 * debian/README.Debian:
393 - Removed the note about how to get collectd2html.pl working with
394 version 4 of collectd - the script now supports the --recursive option
395 which takes care of that.
396 * debian/collectd.overrides:
397 - Documented the 'binary-or-shlib-defines-rpath' warning - the rpath is
398 required by the "java" plugin.
399 * New debconf template translations:
400 - cs.po, thanks to Martin Sin (Closes: #534206).
401 - ru.po, thanks to Yuri Kozlov (Closes: #539467).
402 * debian/control, debian/rules:
403 - No not limit the "libvirt" plugin to amd64, i386, powerpc - libvirt-dev
404 seems to be available on all architectures now.
405 - Reintroduced a work around for #474087 (broken openipmi .pc files) by
406 providing a fixed version of OpenIPMIpthread.pc in debian/pkgconfig and
407 adding that path to PKG_CONFIG_PATH. Removed the version from the
408 libopenipmi-dev build dependency for now.
409 * debian/collectd.conf:

588 * Removed the work around for #474087 (broken openipmi .pc files) introduced
589 in 4.4.1-1 and instead build depend on libopenipmi-dev (>= 2.0.14-1~)

593 - The "status" command now exits with 1 if collectd is not running.
594 - Do not suppress output when checking the configuration with the -t
595 command line option. This will also show errors that don't cause
596 collectd to abort, e.g. failure to load plugins (Closes: #499232).
597 * debian/control:
598 - Added librrd-dev as the preferred option to the librrd2-dev build

618 * Removed librrd0-dev and libmysqlclient14-dev from the build-dependencies -
619 those package are no longer available since Etch.
620 * Removed byacc from the build-dependencies - collectd now requires bison.
621 * Removed libupsclient-config.sh - upstream now supports pkg-config for
622 libupsclient.
623 * Include collection3 in /usr/share/doc/collectd/examples/:
624 - Updated README.Debian to point the collection3's README.
625 - Added libconfig-general-perl to the suggested packages.
626 * README.Debian: Added a note about how to get collectd2html.pl working with
627 version 4 of collectd.

629 strcpy() which is poisoned in collectd.h.
630 * collectd.overrides: Removed shlib-with-non-pic-code for nut.so - the

640 * Added linux-libc-dev (<< 2.6.25-1) as an option to the linux-libc-dev
641 (>= 2.6.25-4) build dependency - those versions are not affected by

643 * Added build dependency on pkg-config - this is used by collectd's
644 configure script to check for a couple of libraries.
645 * Added libupsclient-config.sh to imitate libupsclient-config which is no
646 longer available. libupsclient-config.sh is a simple wrapper around
647 pkg-config. This is a workaround until upstream supports pkg-config for
648 libupsclient.
