collectd (4.8.2-1) unstable; urgency=medium
* New upstream release:
- Now using libtool 2.
* Set urgency to medium because of the fix for #559801.
* Split the "collectd" binary package into "collectd-core" and "collectd".
The former provides the main program file and the plugins while the latter
provides the configuration. This allows for much more flexible setups
(e.g. providing customizations on top of "collectd-core" without modifying
the "collectd" package) and, amongst others, removes the hard dependency
on librrd (Closes: #495936, #544311).
* debian/collectd-core.collectd.init.d:
- Do not (try to) start collectd if the config file does not exist. Else,
installation of "collectd-core" (which does not provide configuration)
would fail.
* debian/collectd.postinst:
- Let the "collectd" package restart the daemon, since it provides the
config file.
* debian/collectd.links:
- Symlink /u/s/d/collectd/examples to /u/s/d/collectd-core/examples.
* debian/control:
- Build-depend on the right combination of libsnmp-dev and perl. Perl's
CFLAGS (included in net-snmp's CFLAGS) introduced '-fstack-protector' in
version 5.10.1 on some architectures (those supporting that features).
net-snmp has been fixed to handle that correctly in 5.4.2.1~dfsg-4;
thanks to Lamont Jones and Dann Frazier for reporting this
(Closes: #559087).
- Build-depend on libsensors4-dev rather than libsensors-dev. libsnmp-dev,
starting with version 5.4.2.1~dfsg-5, supports libsensors4, thus making
that possible. This restores the full functionality of the "sensors"
plugin, which does not work well with libsensors3 and lm-sensors-3;
thanks to Anssi Kolehmainen for reporting this (Closes: #538795).
- Build-depend on libltdl-dev to make it possible to use the system-wide
libltdl.
- No longer conflict/provide/replace the pre-Lenny "collectd-$plugin"
packages.
- Update the list of collectd-core's suggestions: added various services
providing data that may be collected by collectd. Downgraded lm-sensors
from a recommendation to a suggestion.
* debian/patches:
- Removed gmond-fix-compile-error.dpatch -- included upstream.
- Added bts561577_collectd2html_recursive_fix.dpatch -- fixed
collectd2html.pl's recursive mode and improved some defaults; thanks to
Yuri D'Elia for reporting this and providing a patch (Closes: #561577).
- Added bts557599_powerdns_fix.dpatch -- fixed communication to pdns
versions 2.9.22 and above; thanks to <email address hidden> for reporting this
and Luke Heberling for providing the patch (Closes: #557599).
- Added bts559801_plugin_find_fix.dpatch -- make collectd resistant
against copies of libltdl affected by CVE-2009-3736. This fixes a
potential but very unlikely security issue, e.g. found in the embedded
copy. For details about how collectd might be affected, see
<http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=559801#15>; thanks to
Michael Gilbert for reporting this (Closes: #559801).
* debian/rules:
- Pass --without-included-ltdl to configure to tell libtool 2 to not use
the shipped libltdl but rather the one available in the system. Thus,
in the future, libltdl related issues do no longer require updated
collectd packages.
- Pass --disable-static to configure to tell libtool 2 to not build any
static libraries.
- Install debian/collectd.conf as an example into "collectd-core".
- Output the content of config.log if configure fails -- this might help
debugging.
* debian/README.Debian:
- Added a short explanation of the package split.
collectd (4.8.1-2) unstable; urgency=low
* debian/rules:
- Disabled the "java" plugin on hppa for now to work around a backlog in
the buildds that currently prevents a transition to testing.
* debian/control:
- Do not build-depend on openjdk-6-jdk on hppa.
collectd (4.8.1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
* New upstream release:
- Fixed a build issue with libiptc that caused a segfault in the iptables
plugin; thanks to Rodrigo Campos for reporting this (Closes: #535786).
- Updated the powerdns plugin to support pdns 2.9.22 (and above) as well;
thanks to Thomas Morgan for reporting this and Luke Heberling for
providing a patch (Closes: #535787).
New plugins:
- Parse JSON files: curl_json
- Query data from Java processes using JMX: GenericJMX (Java based plugin)
- Atheros wireless LAN chipset statistics: madwifi
- Optimized Link State Routing daemon statistics: olsrd
- Tokyo Tyrant server statistics: tokyotyrant (disabled in Debian,
libtokyotyrant is not available)
- Send collected values to a web-server: write_http
- ZFS Adaptive Replacement Cache statistics: zfs_arc (disabled in Debian,
libkstat is not available)
New matches:
- Match zero COUNTER values: empty_counter
* Set urgency to medium because of the fix for #535786.
* debian/rules:
- Install contrib/GenericJMX.conf to /usr/share/doc/collectd/examples/.
- Disabled the tokyotyrant and zfs_arc plugins - their dependencies are
not available.
* debian/patches:
- Removed bts535787-powerdns-fix-localsocket.dpatch - included upstream.
- Removed bts541953-curl-followlocation.dpatch - included upstream.
- Removed bts542859-df-fix-ignorelist.dpatch - included upstream.
- Removed java-fix-jvm-start.dpatch - included upstream.
- Removed libvirt-reconnect.dpatch - included upstream.
- Removed network-fix-cacheflush.dpatch - included upstream.
- Removed plugin-fix-unregister.dpatch - included upstream.
- Added gmond-fix-compile-error.dpatch - upstream patch fixing a compile
error in the gmond plugin.
* debian/control:
- Build depend on libyajl-dev, which is required by the curl_json plugin.
* Added debian/README.source:
- The file includes a pointer to /usr/share/doc/dpatch/README.source.gz.
* New debconf template translations:
- ja.po, thanks to Hideki Yamane (Closes: #550968).
collectd (4.7.2-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release (Closes: #541887).
- collectd2html.pl now supports the creation of SVG images; thanks to Ivan
Shmakov for providing a patch (Closes: #482185).
New plugins:
- Connection tracking table size: conntrack
- Linux file-system based caching framework statistics: fscache
- Receive and interpret Ganglia multicast traffic: gmond
- Embedded Java Virtual Machine: java
- Query and parse data from a memcache daemon: memcachec
- Information about network protocols: protocols
- Parse table-like structured files: table
- Power consumption measurements from "The Energy Detective" (TED): ted
- System uptime: uptime
* debian/rules:
- Install collectd-unixsock.py to /usr/share/doc/collectd/examples/.
- Pass CPPFLAGS and CFLAGS as arguments to configure instead of setting
them in the environment - this is the recommended way.
- Pass appropriate JAVAC, JAVA_CPPFLAGS and JAVA_LDFLAGS variables to
configure, using OpenJDK found in /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk. The
archdir mapping used by the openjdk-6 Debian package is used to find
libjvm.so in JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ARCHDIR/server.
- Use -rpath to tell the "java" plugin where to find libjvm.so.
- Pass --enable-all-plugins to configure to make sure that the build fails
if any prerequisites are missing.
* debian/control:
- Build-depend on openjdk-6-jdk.
- Build-depend on libganglia1-dev (>= 3), required by the gmond plugin.
- Build-depend on libgcrypt11-dev, used by the network plugin.
- Updated Standards-Version to 3.8.3 (no changes).
- Changed build-dependency libmysqlclient15-dev to libmysqlclient-dev -
this allows transitions to be handled thru binNMUs if possible.
* debian/collectd.install:
- Install collectd-java.5.
* debian/patches:
- Removed libcollectdclient_static_sstrerror.dpatch - included upstream.
- Added network-fix-cacheflush.dpatch - upstream patch to fix the handling
of the 'CacheFlush' config option of the "network" plugin.
- Added libvirt-reconnect.dpatch - upstream patch to let the "libvirt"
plugin re-connect to libvirtd if connecting fails.
- Added plugin-fix-unregister.dpatch - upstream patch to make
'plugin_unregister_read()' functional again, thus fixing a failed
assertion in some cases.
- Added java-fix-jvm-start.dpatch - upstream patch to fix the JVM startup.
- Added bts541953-curl-followlocation.dpatch - upstream patch to let
plugins using libcurl follow HTTP redirects; thanks to Joey Hess for
reporting this (Closes: #541953).
- Added bts535787-powerdns-fix-localsocket.dpatch - upstream patch fixing
the handling of the 'LocalSocket' config option of the "powerdns"
plugin; thanks to Thomas Morgan for reporting this and Luke Heberling
for providing a patch (references: #535787).
- Added bts542859-df-fix-ignorelist.dpatch - upstream patch to fix the
handling of the ignorelist in the "df" plugin; thanks to Joey Hess for
reporting this (Closes: #542859).
* debian/README.Debian:
- Removed the note about how to get collectd2html.pl working with
version 4 of collectd - the script now supports the --recursive option
which takes care of that.
* debian/collectd.overrides:
- Documented the 'binary-or-shlib-defines-rpath' warning - the rpath is
required by the "java" plugin.
* New debconf template translations:
- cs.po, thanks to Martin Sin (Closes: #534206).
- ru.po, thanks to Yuri Kozlov (Closes: #539467).
* debian/control, debian/rules:
- No not limit the "libvirt" plugin to amd64, i386, powerpc - libvirt-dev
seems to be available on all architectures now.
- Reintroduced a work around for #474087 (broken openipmi .pc files) by
providing a fixed version of OpenIPMIpthread.pc in debian/pkgconfig and
adding that path to PKG_CONFIG_PATH. Removed the version from the
libopenipmi-dev build dependency for now.
* debian/collectd.conf:
- Set the "apache" plugin's URL according to the default used by Debian's
Apache; thanks to Joey Hess for reporting this (Closes: #541888).
* debian/libcollectdclient-dev.install, debian/rules:
- Do not install libcollectdclient's .la file in favor of the Squeeze
release goal to remove those files (for details see
<http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2009/08/msg00783.html>).
