https://www.nagios-plugins.org/news/release-1-5.html Enhancements New check_dbi plugin for checking an (SQL) database using DBI Let OpenSSL load its configuration file (see the OPENSSL_config(3) man page) Add performance data to check_apt Add performance data to check_procs Added -4/-6 options to check_dig New check_oracle --connect option to perform real login New check_nagios -t option to override the default timeout New check_disk -f/--freespace-ignore-reserved option to ignore space reserved for root New check_disk -N/--include-type option to limit the filesystem types to check Allow for building the plugins in parallel Add --without-{dbi,ldap,radius} options to ./configure Made Verbose output of check_sensors compliant New switch -E/--extended-perfdata for check_http to print additional performance data New check_http -d option to specify a string to expect within the response headers New check_http -J/-K options for client certificate authentication support Add support for executing queries to check_pgsql Let check_pgsql accept a UNIX socket directory as hostname New check_pgsql -o option to specify additional connection parameters New check_fping -S option to specify the source IP address New check_fping -I option to specify the interface to bind to Let check_fping support IPv6 New check_procs -k option to ignore kernel threads (on Linux) Let check_procs use /proc/<PID>/exe (if available) instead of getpid(2), unless -T is specified Let check_mysql support SSL Let check_mysql add perfromance metrics for all checks New check_mysql -f option to specify a client options file New check_mysql -g option to specify a client options group New check_snmp --offset option to allow for adding/substracting an offset value to sensor data Let check_snmp support an arbitrary number of OIDs Let check_ide_smart support NetBSD Fixes Change the MAIL FROM command generated by check_smtp to be RFC compliant Fix compilation of check_http without SSL support Fix check_snmp reversed threshold ranges (backward-compatibility) Fix check_snmp memory violation when using more than 8 OIDs Fix check_apt security regular expression Fix check_http handling extra header (-k) containing semicolons Fix check_apt handling unknown exit codes from apt-get Fix deprecated imports of check_nmap.py Warnings check_http behaviour of -k/--header changed since it does not separate multiple headers by semicolons anymore. Use multiple -k switches instead. check_http's --proxy_authorization option is now called --proxy-authorization (it was always documented this way) The contrib directory has been removed. These days, sites such as Nagios Exchange and Monitoring Exchange serve as much better places for publishing plugins not maintained by the Nagios Plugins Development Team.
Sorry, this should be version 1.5, not 1.5.0.
There has recently been a (rather contraversial) fork of the Nagios-Plugins project. This: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1054340 goes into some detail and includes views from most sides of the argument. One solution might be a virtual package for monitoring-plugins for Nagios and Icinga (and any others) that is satisfied by either upstream. My personal preference would be for a rename and new source URL from monitoring-plugins. Cheers Jon
nagios-plugins-2-0 released https://nagios-plugins.org/nagios-plugins-2-0-released/
@Jon a virtual package would be great, for release 1.5 I would use the name nagios-plugins, since the name in the distro package is still nagios-plugins. For the next release, it should be renamed for sure. @Alexandr version 2.0 you mention should belong somewhere else, because it was done by the new nagios-plugins developers Below is an ebuild for 1.5. Nls doesn't work, because after configure, po/Makefile contains: mkdir_p = $(MKDIR_P) But it should contain: mkdir_p = /bin/mkdir -p It's not an upstream stuff, because a ./configure and make on the source gives the correct output. For gnutls there is a patch, since they introduced code which isn't supported in gnutls: https://github.com/monitoring-plugins/monitoring-plugins/issues/1254 --- /usr/portage/net-analyzer/nagios-plugins/nagios-plugins-1.4.16-r3.ebuild 2012-11-21 20:01:22.000000000 +0100 +++ nagios-plugins-1.5.ebuild 2014-04-24 15:24:25.490311951 +0200 @@ -8,42 +8,42 @@ inherit autotools eutils multilib user -DESCRIPTION="Nagios $PV plugins - Pack of plugins to make Nagios work properly" -HOMEPAGE="http://www.nagios.org/" -SRC_URI="mirror://sourceforge/nagiosplug/${P}.tar.gz - http://dev.gentoo.org/~flameeyes/${PN}/${P}-patches-${PATCHSET}.tar.xz" +DESCRIPTION="Monitoring plugins - Pack of plugins to make Icinga, Naemon, Nagios, Shinken, Sensu work properly" +HOMEPAGE="http://www.monitoring-plugins.org" +SRC_URI="https://www.monitoring-plugins.org/download/${P}.tar.gz + http://dev.gentoo.org/~flameeyes/${PN}/${PN}-1.4.16-patches-${PATCHSET}.tar.xz" LICENSE="GPL-2" SLOT="0" KEYWORDS="~alpha ~amd64 ~arm ~hppa ~ppc ~ppc64 ~sparc ~x86" IUSE="+ssl samba mysql postgres ldap snmp nagios-dns nagios-ntp nagios-ping nagios-ssh nagios-game ups ipv6 radius +suid jabber gnutls sudo smart" -DEPEND="ldap?

We have deployed v1.5 on about 50 servers, so far so good (amd64).
Marking obsolete, since we have v2.0.3 in the tree now.
