[Pkg-nagios-devel] Bug#661528: /etc/nagios-plugins/config/ipmi_sensor.cfg: Duplicate definition found for command 'check_ipmi_sensor'

[Florian Ernst]

Package: nagios-plugins-contrib
Version: 1.20120220
Severity: grave
File: /etc/nagios-plugins/config/ipmi_sensor.cfg
Tags: patch
Justification: renders package unusable

Hello there,

the default ipmi_sensor.cfg ships a duplicate definition for
check_ipmi_sensor which causes icinga to fail:

| Processing object config file '/etc/nagios-plugins/config/ipmi_sensor.cfg'...
| Warning: Duplicate definition found for command 'check_ipmi_sensor' (config file '/etc/nagios-plugins/config/ipmi_sensor.cfg', starting on line 15)
| Error: Could not add object property in file '/etc/nagios-plugins/config/ipmi_sensor.cfg' on line 16.
|    Error processing object config files!
| [...]
| ***> One or more problems was encountered while processing the config files...
| 
|      Check your configuration file(s) to ensure that they contain valid
|      directives and data definitions.  If you are upgrading from a previous
|      version of Icinga, you should be aware that some variables/definitions
|      may have been removed or modified in this version.  Make sure to read
|      the HTML documentation regarding the config files, as well as the
|      'Whats New' section to find out what has changed.
| 
| errors in config! ... failed!
|  failed!

So, merely by installing this package, I couldn't start my monitoring
setup anymore without modifying this file. Of course that can be easily
fixed, but the package as shipped breaks other software.

Cheers,
Flo
