[Pkg-nagios-devel] Bug#398780: nagios-plugins-basic: check_ups broken by 24_check_ups.dpatch

[Robbert Kouprie]

Package: nagios-plugins-basic
Version: 1.4.4-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

After upgrade of nagios-plugins-basic from 1.4.3.0cvs.20060707-3 to 1.4.4-1, check_ups broke:

robbert at server:/$ /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_ups -H 10.0.0.2 -u compaq
Unknown error: ERR VAR-NOT-SUPPORTED
OK Goodbye

Replacing the check_ups binary with the one from the 1.4.3.0cvs.20060707-3 package fixes the problem:

robbert at server:/$ /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_ups -H 10.0.0.2 -u compaq
UPS OK - Status=Online Utility=229.7V Batt=86.6% Load=43.1% |voltage=229699mV;;;0 battery=86%;;;0;100 load=43%;;;0;100

The source file plugins/check_ups.c is identical in both upstream sources, but in 1.4.4-1 there was a patch introduced with the name 
24_check_ups.dpatch. This patch seems to cause the problem.

Regards,
Robbert
