I'd be happy to volunteer for that I've recently added libconfuse to opencsw.org, and updated the Ganglia description there, so it can build gmond 3.1.2 into a CSW package. There are some final tweaks needed on the Ganglia configure/make files to support the opencsw package, I think that's going to be the last thing I want to squeeze in before 3.1.3. Has anyone had any issues with any of the other stuff I've thrown into trunk and the 3.1 branch? I think we could aim to have 3.1.3 out some time during the next week or two. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
