Description Cal Evans 2003-09-08 10:20:03 UTC
NRPE is a package that is installed on a machine that does NOT have nagios on it
but is being monitored by a Nagios server. NRPE should not be installed on a
machine with Nagios on it as it is redundant. Currently (nagios-1.1.ebuild,
nagios will install NRPE.

Please remove this dependency or at the very least, make it a KEYWORD option
(+/-nrpe) so that those of us who do not want it can continue to update nagios
without editing the ebuild first.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge -U nagios
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
it attempted to install nrpe

Expected Results:  
not attempted to install nrpe.

Thank you for your attention ot this matter and for the great job you are doing
managing the Nagios ebuild.
