Description Rambaldi 2014-07-29 14:14:57 UTC

It seems that check_logfiles does not work with perl-5.18.2. ie:

# /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_logfiles  --help
syntax error at /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_logfiles line 326, near "$level qw(CRITICAL WARNING UNKNOWN OK)"
Global symbol "$level" requires explicit package name at /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_logfiles line 327.
Global symbol "$level" requires explicit package name at /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_logfiles line 328.
Global symbol "$self" requires explicit package name at /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_logfiles line 328.
Global symbol "$level" requires explicit package name at /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_logfiles line 328.

Global symbol "$level" requires explicit package name at /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_logfiles line 329.
Global symbol "$self" requires explicit package name at /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_logfiles line 329.

Global symbol "$self" requires explicit package name at /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_logfiles line 331.
Global symbol "$level" requires explicit package name at /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_logfiles line 331.
Global symbol "$self" requires explicit package name at /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_logfiles line 337.
syntax error at /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_logfiles line 340, near "}"
/usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_logfiles has too many errors.


Reproducible: Always

Ping- any idea what to do here? 

perl-5.16 needs to go at some point because of sec bugs. This is blocking the stabilization of perl-5.18.

We have a new (working) stable version of this package, and I've dropped the busted versions.
