Not sure I understand this scheme; you want to include the rrdtool plugin without a dependency on librrd? How is that supposed to work?
Would it be possible to have an extra package for each plugin? Or at least for those with external dependencies, so collectd-core only includes cpu, memory, swap, ...? Other than that I agree with sensible defaults, ie. collectd shouldn't write to disk or send to the network by default. Maybe we can use the plugins-{available,enabled}/ scheme for all additional plugins like the apache2 package does. _______________________________________________ collectd mailing list collectd@verplant.org http://mailman.verplant.org/listinfo/collectd
