I'm trying out naemon right now, but saw some weird rpm package
dependencies:
- naemon requires naemon-thruk
- naemon requires naemon-livestatus
In the spirit of modularity (like advocated on
http://www.naemon.org/suite.html),
is it not more logical to keep thruk seperated from naemon? But of
course if
the thruk maintainer is willing to keep/provide thruk and naemon-thruk,
that's fine
by me :-)
The same goes for naemon-livestatus, but I understand that there
currently is a
difference in this code and the one from mk-livestatus.
But since it is in fact naemon-thruk and naemon-core that need
livestatus, I think
it is more correct to move the dependency on naemon-livestatus to the
naemon-core
and naemon-thruk packages.
Also, concerning the package naemon-livestatus: could you also include
a xinetd service
for it (like the mk-livestatus rpm does)? So when installing thruk on a
remote server, it's
easier to get it to work.
And a last small thingie: if one uses pnp4nagios and connecting that to
naemon via
livestatus, the perl module perl-Gearman is needed. Unfortunately there
is no rpm for
it, so would you consider creating one? The source can be found at
cpan:
http://search.cpan.org/~dormando/Gearman/
I can provide a spec file for it if wanted. I saw that on the
labs.consol.de repo there
are other perl modules provided too, so I guess this should be easy for
you guys :-)
