32 * debian/control:
33 - Added new binary packages libcollectdclient0 and libcollectdclient-dev
34 for the newly added client library.
35 - Added new binary package collectd-utils for optional utilities that pull
36 in additional dependencies. Currently, this only includes
37 collectd-nagios. The new package replaces collectd (<< 4.6.1-1~),
38 because it overwrites /usr/bin/collectd-nagios.
39 - Added libdbi0-dev to the build dependencies - this is required by the
40 dbi plugin.
41 - Moved collectd-dbg from section "utils" to the newly added "debug".

55 * debian/copyright:
56 - Reference GPL-2 in addition to GPL (latest version), since GPL2-only is
57 used by some files.

72 * debian/control:
73 - Added build dependency on libglib2.0-dev and libnotify-dev required by
74 the notify_desktop plugin.
75 - Added build dependency on libesmtp-dev required by the notify_email
76 plugin.

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

133 possible deadlock in the perl plugin (Closes: #499179).

137 fix a possible memory leak.
138 * Added debian/patches/snmp_memleak.dpatch - trivial upstream patch to fix a
139 possible memory leak in the snmp plugin.
140 * Added debian/patches/memcached_fdleak.dpatch - trivial upstream patch to
141 fix a possible file descriptor leak in the memcached plugin.
142 * Added debian/patches/memcached_timeout.dpatch - trivial upstream patch to
143 fix the timeout passed to poll(2).

147 collectd (4.4.2-1) unstable; urgency=low
149 * New upstream release.
150 * Removed librrd0-dev and libmysqlclient14-dev from the build-dependencies -
151 those package are no longer available since Etch.
152 * Removed byacc from the build-dependencies - collectd now requires bison.
153 * Removed libupsclient-config.sh - upstream now supports pkg-config for
154 libupsclient.
155 * Include collection3 in /usr/share/doc/collectd/examples/:
156 - Updated README.Debian to point the collection3's README.
157 - Added libconfig-general-perl to the suggested packages.
158 * README.Debian: Added a note about how to get collectd2html.pl working with
159 version 4 of collectd.
160 * Added debian/patches/myplugin_strcpy.dpatch - use sstrncpy() instead of
161 strcpy() which is poisoned in collectd.h.
162 * collectd.overrides: Removed shlib-with-non-pic-code for nut.so - the
163 plugin now links against the shared libupsclient.
164 * Do not compress any example files, so they may be used directly.

168 collectd (4.4.1-2) unstable; urgency=low
170 * Restrict libcurl4-gnutls-dev build dependency to versions which are not
171 affected by #488701 (Closes: #489091).
172 * Added linux-libc-dev (<< 2.6.25-1) as an option to the linux-libc-dev
173 (>= 2.6.25-4) build dependency - those versions are not affected by
174 #479899.
175 * Added build dependency on pkg-config - this is used by collectd's
176 configure script to check for a couple of libraries.
177 * Added libupsclient-config.sh to imitate libupsclient-config which is no
178 longer available. libupsclient-config.sh is a simple wrapper around
179 pkg-config. This is a workaround until upstream supports pkg-config for
180 libupsclient.
181 * Replaced nut-dev build dependency with libupsclient1-dev:
182 Reenabled the "nut" plugin on all architectures.

208 - gl.po, thanks to Jacobo Tarrio (Closes: #482667).
209 * Added a work around for #474087 (broken openipmi .pc files) by forcing the

481 collectd (3.10.0-1) unstable; urgency=low
483 * New upstream release.
484 New plugins:
485 - APC UPS's charge, load, input/output/battery voltage, etc.: apcups
486 - NTP daemon's local clock drift, offset to peers, etc.: ntpd
487 * Upstream no longer provides a debian/ directory. Thus no repackaging is
488 required any longer.
489 * Not using getifaddrs() is now the default in upstream. getifaddrs.dpatch
490 no longer needed.
491 * Added collectd-hddtemp as a suggestion to the collectd package.

495 collectd (3.9.4+debian-1) unstable; urgency=low
497 * Initial release (Closes: #373008).
498 * Removed upstream's debian/ directory from .orig.tar.gz.
499 * getifaddrs.dpatch: Patching src/traffic.c to read data from /proc instead
500 of using getifaddrs(). getifaddrs() does not seem to work correctly on
501 AMD64.
