Package: mgm
Version: 1.1.svn.20080520-1
Severity: important
Unlike other graphical system-monitoring apps such as GKrellM, MGM
is available for kfreebsd-i386; but when I try to run it I just get:
Unable to open plugin directory /usr/share/mgm/modules/gnukfreebsd: No such
file or directory
The problem here is that $moddir is set from $Config{osname}, which
is no longer guaranteed to be "linux".
There is a simple workaround: creating a gnukfreebsd -> linux
symlink gets it mostly up and running. As it happens, using the
/usr/share/mgm/modules/netbsd in the source package would be _less_
useful, since it's just a cut-down copy of the linux moddir, and
some of the omitted modules do work thanks to the linprocfs support
on Debian's gnukfreebsd.
The alternative approach is just to stop calling it "Architecture:
all". Or of course you could upgrade this bug to "grave" and get
the package RMed - after all it has a negligible popcon score and a
404ing homepage.
