[Pkg-nagios-devel] Bug#555532: nagios: uninstallable/unbuildable on non-linux

[Petr Salinger]

Package: nagios-plugins, nagios3
Severity: important
User: debian-bsd at lists.debian.org
Usertags: kfreebsd

Hi,

it seems that the nagios related packages need an ping command available.
They choose iputils-ping, which is rather linux specific.
Could be possible to switch (at least on non-linux)
to inetutils-ping (already available) or fping (modulo #555398 available).
It will help to kfreebsd-i386, kfreebsd-amd64 and hurd architectures.

Thanks for considering it.

Petr
