[Pkg-nagios-devel] Bug#768018: nagios-plugins-contrib: check_ipmi_sensor -H localhost (for local IPMI checks) broken, fixed upstream

[Werner Fischer]

Package: nagios-plugins-contrib
Version: 13.20141017
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

we have found executing "check_ipmi_sensor -H localhost" is broken in
check_ipmi_sensor v3.4.

   * What led up to the situation?
       Executing the following command on an IPMI-enabled host fails:
       /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_ipmi_sensor -H localhost
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
       Updating to check_ipmi_sensor v3.5 fixed the issue.
   * What was the outcome of this action?
       root at debian-test:~# /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_ipmi_sensor -H localhost
       hostname not specified
       
       -> Execution of /usr/sbin/ipmi-sensors failed with return code 1.
       -> /usr/sbin/ipmi-sensors was executed with the following parameters:
          sudo /usr/sbin/ipmi-sensors --quiet-cache --sdr-cache-recreate --interpret-oem-data --output-sensor-state --ignore-not-available-sensors --driver-type=LAN_2_0
       root at debian-test:~# /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_ipmi_sensor -V

   * What outcome did you expect instead?
       root at debian-test:~# ./check_ipmi_sensor -H localhost

We have fixed the issue upstream and are asking to include the updated version
v3.5 of the plugin with the next update of nagios-plugins-contrib:
http://git.thomas-krenn.com/?p=check_ipmi_sensor_v3.git;a=commit;h=refs/tags/v3.5

Best regards,
