>   mrtg sends an email to root every time it's called because of an error.  As 
> far as I understand, this error has been fixed by mrtg months ago but is 
> still not included in the packages system:
>   v2.17.3 (2011-12-01): latest stable release
>   v2.17.1 (2011-02-18): bugfix for the problem related to this bugreport
>   v2.16.3 (2010-01-20): version included in the packages
> 
>   due to the nature of mrtg (collecting data) it's called every 5 minutes, 
> resulting in 288 mails/day.
>   I believe this bug showed up on my system after an APT-triggered perl 
> upgrade some time ago
