Hi, I suffer from this bug, too. It is very ennoying (one mail each 5 min :-( ).
One comment already explain that some plugins do not provide UTF-8 encoded string. Please, recode all plugin files : plugins (and munin) should not be dependent of the locale installed on the computer. So expect all config files UTF-8 encoded and please, provide UTF-8 encoded files yourself. You can easily find all problematic files with : find /usr/share/munin/plugins/ -type f | while read f ; do echo "Checking $f" ; uniname -V $f ; done And I really think that such bug must be asked for a freeze exception : recoding some script strings in UTF-8 is a really small change. And munin is not ready to be used with the problematic plugins without this patch. So please, correct these badly encoded strings and ask [EMAIL PROTECTED] for a freeze exception. Best regards, Vincent PS: uniname is in the uniutils package PPS: these re-encodings will probably be needed to be pushed upstream for its next release (but do not wait for it to patch your package *AND* ask for a freeze exception) PPPS: I did not want to change the severity, but I really think that a grave severity would be good : one mail each 5 min in a production environment is not really a good software for lenny... PPPPS: "apt-file search /usr/share/munin/plugins" gives 4 packages with munin plugins. Checking each would probably be a good thing (I did not do it). munin-node and munin-plugins-extra is yours. python-poker-network and sitesummary will perhaps need other bug reports. -- Vincent Danjean GPG key ID 0x9D025E87 [EMAIL PROTECTED] GPG key fingerprint: FC95 08A6 854D DB48 4B9A 8A94 0BF7 7867 9D02 5E87 Unofficial pacakges: http://www-id.imag.fr/~danjean/deb.html#package APT repo: deb http://perso.debian.org/~vdanjean/debian unstable main -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
