Dear release team,

having a look into the status of the nagios packages in squeeze, we
discovered, that ndoutils is not in squeeze (yet).

Not having ndoutils in squeeze means:

* nagvis is broken (missing recommand)

That doesn't mean that nagvis is broken, since it only recommends
ndoutils-mysql. If it's a real runtime non-optional dependency, it makes
nagvis RC buggy.

* ndoutils is in lenny but dropped with squeeze (maybe without any
strong reason)

Never assume that! It was rc-buggy (#560681, causing some data-loss) and
that's why it was removed. Its maintainer didn't try to get it back in
testing. It has been out of testing for over than 7 months now...

* many 3rd party applications are based on ndoutils, so this will
have a significant effect for the nagios "ecosystem" on squeeze

Nothing depends on it (unless I'm on crack), so how its removal can have a significant effect for the nagios "ecosystem" in Squeeze?

* popcon count is 235


Which is not high...

Regards,
