[Pkg-monitoring-maintainers] Bug#812462: ganglia: [FTBFS, patch] out-of-date and missing build-depends

[Michael Tautschnig]

Package: ganglia
Version: 3.6.0-6
Usertags: goto-cc
Tags: patch
Severity: serious
Justification: FTBFS

As of its version 1.5.4-3, rrdtool no longer Provides: librrd2-dev from
librrd-dev. This breaks the build of ganglia. Changing the build-dependency to
librrd-dev fixes this first problem.

The build then fails with

./configure: line 12863: PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG: command not found

Checking for apr
./configure: line 12978: syntax error near unexpected token `APR,apr-1'
./configure: line 12978: `  PKG_CHECK_MODULES(APR,apr-1)'

and

Checking for zlib
checking zlib.h usability... no
checking zlib.h presence... no
checking for zlib.h... no
checking for deflate in -lz... no
zlib library not configured properly

The attached patch addresses all these problems, and the build succeeds
eventually.

Best,
Michael
