Public bug reported: Binary package hint: vnstat
Rational for request: The current version in Lucid is over 2 years old and contains a long list of bugs and limitations especially when used with interfaces that aren't always online (3G modems, wlans...). See the upstream changelog [1] for a complete list of correction since version 1.6. The package is currently in the Debian NEW queue [2][3]. I've tested that the package builds and works without errors in Lucid. Upgrading from the previous version has also been tested.
