> Updates in a stable Ubuntu release needs to be acknowledged by the
Release Managers.

This plugin is simply broken and unusable in the 16.04 stable release,
also a regression from previous Ubuntu LTS. We have to detect Ubuntu
16.04 and deploy a different check script just for those systems,
instead of relying on the distribution-packaged one.

The patch would be backward-incompatible, strictly speaking, because it would 
stop the plugin from saying "Unable to interpret /usr/bin/free output" as it 
does now.
IMHO it would be an acceptable change :)

So, what are the next steps to get this patch acknowledged by the
Release Managers?
