Wel today I found time to test thi is a rather simple way.
I just took the nagios-plugin source RPM and just did a build myself on
one of my Centos 5 machines.
The resulting packages contained a working check_ping executable that
was aware of ping and ping6.
The relevant bits from my build log:
...
checking for mysql_init in -lmysqlclient... yes
checking for IPv6 support... yes
checking krb5.h usability... yes
...
...
checking for ps syntax... /bin/ps axwo 'stat uid pid ppid vsz rss pcpu
comm args'
checking for ping... /bin/ping
checking for ping6... /usr/sbin/ping6
checking for ICMP ping syntax... /bin/ping -n -U -w %d -c %d %s
checking for ICMPv6 ping syntax... /usr/sbin/ping6 -n -U -w %d -c %d %s
checking for nslookup... /usr/bin/nslookup
...
...
config.status: creating po/POTFILES
config.status: creating po/Makefile
--with-apt-get-command: /usr/bin/apt-get
--with-ping6-command: /usr/sbin/ping6 -n -U -w %d -c %d %s
--with-ping-command: /bin/ping -n -U -w %d -c %d %s
--with-ipv6: yes
--with-mysql: /usr/bin/mysql_config
--with-openssl: yes
--with-gnutls: no
--enable-extra-opts: no
--with-perl: /usr/bin/perl
--enable-perl-modules: no
--with-cgiurl: /nagios/cgi-bin
--with-trusted-path: /bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin
/usr/bin/make all-recursive
...
So the key question becomes why the buildhost does not offer
/usr/sbin/ping6 so the package can be build correctly?
[hvdko...@balin SPECS]$ rpm -qf /usr/sbin/ping6
iputils-20020927-45.el5
[hvdko...@balin SPECS]$ rpm -qf /bin/ping
iputils-20020927-45.el5
So in this case iputils should be a required package during the build
and operation of the nagios plugins.
I did compile the source rpm as mere mortal user and not as root.
So I think this clearly indicates that the building host for the
nagios-plugins package has a problem that needs to be resolved.
Hugo.
