[Pkg-nagios-devel] Bug#874259: nagios-plugins-contrib: check_memory regression on Debian 9 (don't work anymore)

[Tom LAREDO]

Package: nagios-plugins-contrib
Version: 21.20170222
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

nagios-plugins-contrib provides /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_memory that is broken on Debian Stretch.

Here is the behaviour:

# /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_memory
Can't call method "new" on an undefined value at ./check_memory line 55.

This may be due to the format change of 'free' command (or maybe a broken/missing dependency?).

Regards,
Tom
