Subject: collectd-tg: Fix sleep interval.
X-Git-Tag: collectd-5.6.2~9
X-Git-Url: https://git.tokkee.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=db961f476426f5dd3ca1663ffc094f0fc7f6f8a2;p=collectd.git

collectd-tg: Fix sleep interval.

nanosleep() was called with the current time, meaning that it would
block for years. This correctly subtracts "now" from the metric's time
and only sleeps for the duration between the two.
