[Pkg-nagios-devel] Bug#444076: (no subject)

[Scott Serr]

I was able to reproduce this on a fresh net-install of Etch on i386.

apt-get install mysql-server
apt-get install nagios-mysql
rm /etc/nagios/database.cfg
apt-get --purge remove nagios-mysql
apt-get install nagios-mysql

I've also tried 'dpkg-reconfigure nagios-mysql" with the same result.

People normally(?) solve a removed config file by doing "apt-get --purge 
remove <pkgname>" and then "apt-get install <pkgname>" but this does not 
work with nagios-mysql.
