Package: munin-node Version: 1.2.6-10~lenny2 Followup-For: Bug #551128
I'll try to clarify the problem, as I'm not sure the real problem was understood correctly, and I have the same problem. When the postinst script completes with: Setting up munin-node (1.2.6-10~lenny2) ... Initializing plugins..# There were some errors: # Got junk from smart_: /usr/bin/env: python: No such file or directory failed. done. It is not just that "smart_" plugin does not get installed if python is missing; the problem is that *none* of the plugins do - that is, the /etc/munin/plugins directory remains *empty* after installation if python was not installed manually beforehand. If I do install python before, then I get a lot of files in plugins directory (none of which, ironically, requires python): cpu df df_inode entropy exim_mailqueue exim_mailstats forks if_err_eth0 if_err_eth1 if_eth0 if_eth1 interrupts iostat irqstats load memory ntp_offset open_files open_inodes processes swap vmstat So the problem is that the whole postinst script is non-functional if python is missing. I think it should either be recommends, or (preferably) munin-node-configure called by postinst should be fixed to create everything else but the plugins requiring missing python package (instead of aborting without doing anything, as it seems to be doing now). -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.5 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-xen-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages munin-node depends on: ii adduser 3.110 add and remove users and groups ii gawk 1:3.1.5.dfsg-4.1 GNU awk, a pattern scanning and pr ii libnet-server-perl 0.97-1 An extensible, general perl server ii lsb-base 3.2-20 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii perl 5.10.0-19lenny2 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii procps 1:3.2.7-11 /proc file system utilities Versions of packages munin-node recommends: pn libnet-snmp-perl <none> (no description available) Versions of packages munin-node suggests: pn acpi | lm-sensors <none> (no description available) ii ethtool 6+20080913-1 display or change Ethernet device pn libdbd-pg-perl <none> (no description available) pn liblwp-useragent-determined <none> (no description available) pn libnet-irc-perl <none> (no description available) ii libwww-perl 5.813-1 WWW client/server library for Perl pn munin <none> (no description available) pn munin-plugins-extra <none> (no description available) pn mysql-client <none> (no description available) ii python 2.5.2-3 An interactive high-level object-o pn smartmontools <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
