Bug Description
Binary package hint: liboping0, liboping-dev
Rationale: As part of the server-o-monitoring blueprint, we would like to include collectd into main as a tool for server monitoring and reporting. collectd makes use of liboping as a package dependency and liboping-dev as a build dependency.
Availability: Currently available in universe, all Build-Depends available in main
Security: No security issues reported. The source package contains a binary package 'oping' which installs a setuid-binary (noted in .overrides), but that package is beyond the scope of this MIR and not needed in main.
Qualtiy Assurance: 0 bugs against ubuntu or debian
Standards Compliance: FHS and Debian Policy compliant.
Maintenance: The package is in sync with debian with the exception of being rebuilt for Perl 5.12 on oneiric.
Dependencies: All build dependencies are in main. liboping-dev depends on liboping0.
Approved. Archive admins, take note: only the binary packages liboping0 and liboping-dev are approved and should be promoted.
