Package: nagios-plugins-standard Version: 1.4.15-3squeeze1 Severity: normal
Upstream nagios has a config option for support the --extra-opts argument, which allows storing extra options in a file (see http://nagiosplugins.org/extra-opts). This is very helpful when using the mysql nagios plugin, which requires a password --- I can stick my check definition in nrpe.cfg, but read passwords out of a separate file (and avoid putting the password in ps -AF output). It would be great if Debian could enable support for this option prior to 1.5's release (when it will become the default) --- Fedora already does enable it. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.6 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages nagios-plugins-standard depends on: ii libc6 2.11.3-4 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.23-7.2 OpenLDAP libraries ii libmysqlclient16 5.1.66-0+squeeze1 MySQL database client library ii libpq5 8.4.13-0squeeze1 PostgreSQL C client library ii libradiusclient-ng2 0.5.6-1.1 Enhanced RADIUS client library ii nagios-plugins-basic 1.4.15-3squeeze1 Plugins for the nagios network mon ii ucf 3.0025+nmu1 Update Configuration File: preserv Versions of packages nagios-plugins-standard recommends: ii bind9-host [host 1:9.7.3.dfsg-1~squeeze8 Version of 'host' bundled with BIN ii dnsutils 1:9.7.3.dfsg-1~squeeze8 Clients provided with BIND ii fping 2.4b2-to-ipv6-16.1 sends ICMP ECHO_REQUEST packets to ii host 1:9.7.3.dfsg-1~squeeze8 Transitional package ii libnet-snmp-perl 5.2.0-4 Script SNMP connections ii qstat 2.11-3 Command-line tool for querying qua ii smbclient 2:3.5.6~dfsg-3squeeze8 command-line SMB/CIFS clients for ii snmp 5.4.3~dfsg-2 SNMP (Simple Network Management Pr ii whois 5.0.10 an intelligent whois client Versions of packages nagios-plugins-standard suggests: ii exim4-daemon-light 4.72-6+squeeze3 lightweight Exim MTA (v4) daemon pn nagios3 <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
