I think everything's covered for an SRU... please let me know if we need more.
[Impact]
ganglia packages won't install on oneiric
[Development Fix]
attached branch already merged into precise, changes:
debian/gmetad.postinst
debian/ganglia-monitor.postinst
debian/changelog
[Stable Fix]
An identical branch is attached for oneiric, but I've been told the version
numbering might have to be changed because it'd be an SRU. Not sure what to do
here.
This branch has been built into a ppa with successful, but not
necessarily exhaustive, tests (comments above).
[Test Case]
Reproduce with
apt-get install gmetad
or
apt-get install ganglia-monitor
or anything that depends on these (like ganglia-webfrontend).
[Regression Potential]
The packages in the archive won't currently install... not sure what's relevant
to regression.
** Description changed:
gmetad 3.1.7-2 won't install on oneiric.

useradd tries to create a group 'ganglia' that's already been created.
