The SRU template: [Impact]
* User receives repeated notification e-mail when an alert is triggered on an "Alert" with option edgetrigger = yes * backporting because broken smokeping edgetrigger option makes smokeping useless in many scenarios * the bug is fixed upstream https://github.com/oetiker/SmokePing/issues/183#issuecomment-533722180 and in Debian https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=934170#46 [Test Case] * Install smokeping, add an Alert with edgetrigger = yes and a target which uses that Alert. Configure e-mail alerting. Point that target to ping a powered on device. Start smokeping, wait 10 minutes, power off or disconnect these target device from the network. You will receive an email with "raised" event, and then an infinite sequence of email with "cleared" event at every smokeping poll (5 minutes default). A working option edgetrigger = yes should only send one email when target is unreachable and one when is reachable again.
