Trouble starting nagios

For some rediculous reason the package maintainer did not decide to
build the pgsql and mysql packages with XOD_TEMPLATE defined, and
updated packages haven't been uploaded. I've posted a working version
of the .deb @:
http://www.mcalpinecomputing.net/deb/nagios-mysql_1.2-3.1_i386.deb

This is bug #235139 @ bugs.debian.org
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=235139
