Public bug reported: This project was forced to change its name because of a trademark assertion (see https://www.monitoring-plugins.org/news/new-project- name.html), so the package name, upstream URL in the package description, and possibly other references to the old name will need to be updated.
See Debian Bug #736331 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi- bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=736331> and Red Hat Bug #1054340 <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1054340> for more details and discussion. Changes to file paths might be appropriate, but would break several things, so some discussion about that will be needed, possibly with some symlinks for a few releases or some such. I expect the details are best worked out upstream in Debian rather than creating a delta, but it seems like we need a bug report on Ubuntu as well since changes may need to happen before the Trusty release, particularly since it's LTS. This affects all versions of Ubuntu at this point, but it's probably most sane to only change things for Trusty and releases after that at this point, IMO. Upgrades from previous releases to Trusty or later should replace the old package with the new name (the Red Hat bug has lots of discussion about upgrade paths - it may be worthwhile to talk with Sam Kottler so Ubuntu/Debian end up with similar behavior to Red Hat/CentOS/Fedora in this respect). This also affects the dependencies of several other packages, such as nagios3-common, icinga-common, shinken-common, and probably others. ** Affects: nagios-plugins (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: nagios-plugins (Debian) Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Affects: nagios-plugins (Fedora) Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #736331 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=736331 ** Also affects: nagios-plugins (Debian) via http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=736331 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Bug watch added: Red Hat Bugzilla #1054340 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1054340 ** Also affects: nagios-plugins (Fedora) via https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1054340 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1273484 Title: nagios-plugins renamed to monitoring-plugins To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nagios-plugins/+bug/1273484/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
