Description Dirk Tilger 2010-08-08 20:45:40 UTC

Nagios is a network monitoring application. NRPE is a daemon to be installed on a host to be monitored.

The following patches are enabling nagios NRPE to be run from a prefixed portage.

I also ported the init.d scripts, since I'm still intending to fix bug 196294. ;)

The configure script of Nagios NRPE is looking for .so files. Though I tend to believe the correct approach would be to rewrite the linking detection checks in configure.in, it's too big a change for me to attempt and since I'm not a regular follower of Nagios developer mailinglists, I would miss any issues I'd created. So my patch simply adds a check for .dylib as well.

Also I found in the ebuilds the following parameters to econf:
--host=${CHOST}
--prefix=/usr

I removed both instead of rewriting --prefix.

I seem unable to attach any more files to any of my open bugs. Will do it tomorrow. :(

I agree with the patches except you have to use EAPI3, adding maintainer for approval.

Recent version in the tree has EAPI=4. 

@Dirk: can you post updated patches?

Apologies, I stopped using Nagios and lost access to existing deployments.
