Bug#208218: ITP: nagios-plugins -- Plugins for the nagios network monitoring and management system
How do the ITP for nagios-plugin relate to the netsaint-plugins package already in the archive? Is it a replacement? Would it be an idea to just hijack netsaint-plugins? http://packages.qa.debian.org/n/netsaint-plugins.html> show the state of netsaint-plugins, and it isn't too good.

Guido, That is an inaccurate assessment of events... My mention of me handling was from my mis-understanding Turbo's statements about not having enough time as not having enough time to work on Nagios, which was a wrong assumption on my part and Turbo corrected his statement... Yes, I have had some diffs to Turbo's Nagios package publically available on people.d.o/~jbouse/ for quite some time until the auto clean routines flushed it out after it'd been there for several months. The auto-flush of the source is a bug in my maint script on people.d.o that I need to resolve. The only thing that would have been need'd to evaluate my changes was the diff.gz which I had version'd as 1.1-1.1 as if it were an NMU... Any coorespondance with Turbo has been lengthy on waiting for replies. I've had better response from yourself.

I have a draft package but haven't proceeded on it since then, because I've been stopped by Jeremy T Bouse who told me he had a ready nagios + plugins package. After that Turbo has done an upload to nagios fixing his RC bugs, but nothing went on about the plugins, so some days ago I wrote them both, to ask what to do. Turbo answered that he would be glad if one could manage the plugins, because he has no time to manage one more package. Jeremy on the other side seemed only interested in managing the whole nagios, which Turbo wants to keep. So, after all, if no one objects or has a better idea I think I'll manage nagios-plugins, according to my original plan... Obviously if there are other ideas Turbo shall have the last word about what is to be done, since he is the nagios maintainer. Unfortunately in this period I'm very full of work, but I think I can manage to finish my package and upload it within the first or second week of november. Bye, Guido

Also Turbo didn't tell me in his last mail. What I wrote him was a plan to fix nagios for sarge, which consisted in first packaging and uploading the nagios plugins, and then to patch the current package in order to make it work with them. He answered he didn't have time to package them, so I started to do it, but if you already have a package handy please upload it (btw, I have written a patch about the nagios equivalent of #197400, which I also intended to forward upstream one of this days...): what have kept you from doing this, till now? Once we have the plugins in the archive we can think about nagios itself, Turbo said we can submit him patches, and he has even no problems if we NMU nagios, as long as we submit patches in the BTS. Maybe we can cooperate on this or even comaintain the nagios-plugins package, if you want... Bye, and thanks for your prompt reply! Guido pgptgJKhAamVO.pgp Description: PGP signature

I am already packaging the nagios-plugins... Check out http://people.debian.org/~jbouse/nagios/ for the packages I'm working on currently... The problem is I either have to do my upload of the nagios packages as an NMU or finally get some response from Turbo which has been the hold up for me uploading the nagios-plugin packages because of problems in the nagios (nagios-pgsql, nagios-mysql & nagios-text) packages that Turbo currently has in the mirror... This has also already been mentioned on the nagios-plugins mailing lists on Sourceforge as I am also part of the Nagios plugins development team.
