[Pkg-nagios-devel] Bug#853861: [nagios-plugins-contrib] check_raid now requires sudoers file

[Robert Haist]

Package: nagios-plugins-contrib
Version: 20.20170118~bpo8+1
Severity: grave


With the last update the check_raid plugin now requires a sudoers file for the new default enabled plugin "dm". This file can be generated with "check_raid -S" and should probably be included in the package.


Steps to reproduce:
-----------------------
# sudo -u nagios ./check_raid
We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System
Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things:

    #1) Respect the privacy of others.
    #2) Think before you type.
    #3) With great power comes great responsibility.

sudo: no askpass program specified, try setting SUDO_ASKPASS

# ./check_raid -S

Updating file /etc/sudoers.d/check_raid
/etc/sudoers.d/check_raid.new.19812: parsed OK
/etc/sudoers.d/check_raid file updated.
check_raid OK - sudoers updated

# sudo -u nagios ./check_raid
