As far as I can tell, libstatgrab is optional, no plugin has a hard requirement on this library. Referring to the README, it's used "by various plugins to collect statistics on systems other than Linux and/or Solaris." The debian package for 5.2 isn't built against libstatgrab and all the plugins mentioning this lib in their source code are part of the package and are working as expected. I would be surprised if it was any different on RHEL. I'm going to update PR#220 accordingly !
