I checked the existing bug reports, but oversaw bug #736331. I didn't saw that there were interpersonal issues that causes forks of this package. Now there are two projects maintained by two different teams. > We are going to stay with the origin project (even if it has to use > another name now) and not packaging the forked one. I don't know which is the best way forward. It probably makes sense to make it possible to ship both packages in Debian and let the user decide which project is "better" and "wins". To make them co-installable, both project should pick new binary package names and the nagios-plugins packages should become transitional package and go away. -- Benjamin Drung System Developer ProfitBricks GmbH - The IaaS-Company Greifswalder Str. 207 D - 10405 Berlin Mail: [email protected] Fax: +49 30 577 008 598 URL: http://www.profitbricks.com Sitz der Gesellschaft: Berlin.
