[Pkg-monitoring-maintainers] Bug#878067: ganglia-webfrontend: not compatible with PHP 7

[Rike-Benjamin Schuppner]

Package: ganglia-webfrontend
Version: 3.6.1-3
Severity: normal

Hi,

The ganglia-webfrontend code contains calls to split() which is not
available in PHP 7 anymore (and therefore breaks on Debian 9) as can be
seen by accessing http://localhost/ganglia/api/host.php?action=list.

A quick fix seems to be to replace split() with explode() in
/usr/share/ganglia-webfrontend/api/host.php.
