i've added my input on the empty perfdata behaviorial change on the nagios-devel lists and i do think that this is a bug because it actually breaks compatibility. even if not intended, if the behaviour stayed thre for a long time, i don't see the reason to "fix" that this way. but solely, that's just my opinion even if i break the abi myself from time to time. just a hint to reduce support questions. > > And yes, 3.3.1 is the latest stable.
