Do *NOT* install binary packages you do not know their procedence.

Well, the basic thing you need to have *nagios* working should be only nagios.
However, that would only give you the daemon which would not be able to do
more than collecting data.
To perform check, you should install nagios-plugins To perform checks through
nrpe (ssh checks carry heavy load) install nagios-nrpe. To install the "web
interface" install nagios-www.
Last time I checked, the nagios package came with example spec files which will
allow you to build your own packages.
