Thanks to Fabien Wernli for his patch! + * df plugin: Fix handling of negative "available" counts. This can + occur with some file systems, for example UFS. Thanks to Toni Ylenius + for his patch. + * interface plugin: "mac" interfaces are now ignored on Solaris. These + pseudo-interfaces occur multiple times, causing warnings. Also switch + to 64-bit counters on Solaris, improving overflow behavior for + high-speed interfaces. Thanks to Eddy Geez and Fabien Wernli for + their patches. + * memory plugin: Account kernel and unused memory under Solaris. Thanks + to Fabien Wernli for his patch. + * network plugin: A bug in the interaction between the Network plugin + and filter chains has been fixed: When a filter modified a field such + as the hostname, subsequent values in the same network packets could + have ended up using the modified name rather than the original name. + Thanks to Sebastian Harl for identifying the problem. + * oracle plugin: A memory leak has been fixed in the parameter handling. + * python plugin: A memory leak has been fixed. Thanks to Sven Trenkel + for fixing this bug! + +2011-10-07, Version 5.0.1 + * collectd: A mutex leak has been fixed in the meta data code.

Formatting of time has been fixed in the JSON module. + * exec plugin: Fix the timestamp value passed to notification scripts. + Thanks to Alexander Kovalenko for fixing this. + * iptables plugin: Fix linking with some versions of libiptc. + * irq plugin: Fix support for interrupts under Linux.

Thanks to Samuli Suominen for his patch. + * processes plugin: Fix handling of regular expressions containing + spaces.

All plugins now use "derive" by default, but + plugins such as the network plugin can still handle "counter", of + course. The minimum value of all derive data sources is zero, the + maximum value is unspecified. + * amqp plugin: The new AMQP plugin can send data to and receive data + from an AMQP broker. Thanks to Sebastien Pahl for his code. + * apache plugin: Backwards compatibility code has been removed. + Support for the IBM HTTP Server has been added.

Thanks to Fabien Wernli for his patch!
