We're collecting more and more Nagios bugs every day, and we've been |
| 2 |
stuck on the 3.x series for a while even though upstream has moved to 4.x. |

The main problem as far as I can see is that nagios-plugins is a big |
| 5 |
mess, and it's hard for any one person to test. (We use it at work, but |
| 6 |
there's no ipv6 there, or ldap, or snmp, or game servers...) |

I've rewritten the nagios, nagios-core, and nagios-plugins ebuilds, and |
| 9 |
will eventually ask permission to commit them to ~arch. That will rip |
| 10 |
the band-aid off, so to speak, after which I can work on addressing the |
| 11 |
existing bugs. But before I do, I'd like to have a few people test it |
| 12 |
and tell me it works. |

So if anyone is using nagios, please give these a try. |

If you see any problems, just comment on the bug or email me or |
| 25 |
whatever. I am actually using these ebuilds, so they won't delete your |
| 26 |
system32 or anything. If there are bugs they're likely in one of the |
| 27 |
parts I don't use. I'm also pretty sure that most of the open bugs on |
| 28 |
b.g.o still apply, but this version at least shouldn't be any worse than |
| 29 |
the one in the tree. |
