I have to say, I am a bit concerned about this.

We started using a backup system called Amanda many years ago. One of it's real 
strengths was portability. Over the years we have probably used it on 20+ * NIX 
variants. Unfortunately, we have pretty much come to the conclusion that we are 
going to have to find a different project to use for our backup needs. The 
reason? We that project has become dominated by a commercial company, and the 
people driving its direction have made it so non portable, and created such a 
complex build process that we cannot keep it working as we install new machines.

We just installed several OpenBSD 5.5 machines, and pretty much have decide we 
cannot get tge client to build on these machines. I hope that Nagios does not 
suffer a similar disaster.
