We have resolved this issue now, but other blockers and a lack of time on my part to backport some library routines has kept 3.0.x out. I'm tracking the 3.1 dev tree atm, and periodically pushing out svn packages. Hopefully I'll be getting those pushed into experimental soon.

Package: ganglia-monitor Followup-For: Bug #353364 Hi Stuart, Almost 2 years ago you mentioned that the reason that Ganglia version 3.x was not getting into Debian was because the developers had included some of the source of glibc directly into Ganglia without changing the licence of Ganglia from BSD to GPL. You were going to contact the developers and let them know about the problem, but you never mentioned the outcome of the discussion in the Debian bug-tracking system. Have you considered reporting this problem to the FSF? They can be very efficient about policing their copyrights when they want to be. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
