Sync munin 1.4.3-2 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

[Michael Jeanson]

Please sync munin 1.4.0-1 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

Explanation of the Ubuntu delta and why it can be dropped:
* Suugest libdate-manip-perl (LP: #306274) :
  - It's now a recommend in the Debian package
* Recommend "cron". (LP: #225061)
  - It's now a depend in the Debian package

Changelog entries since current lucid version 1.2.6-17ubuntu1:

munin (1.4.0-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Initial upload of munin 1.4.0 to Debian unstable. (Closes: #535691)
    New features include:
    - Better scalability (multigraph support)
    - Better security through TLS (SSL)
    - Better looking HTML templates
    - "includedir" in munin.conf to allow drop-in configuration
    - More than 100 new plugins
    - bugfixes
    Please refer to the Announce-1.4.0, changelog for the full details.
  * Remove 62 patches that have been merged in trunk.

    where to install the htmldir, and possibly support more webservers by
    default.
  * Add new binary package: munin-common, which contains code shared by
    munin and munin-node. Added depends on munin-common to munin,
    munin-node.

  * debian/rule - make target names have changed.
  * Add depends to liblog-log4perl-perl for munin.

Munin 1.4.0 is the new stable release, the 1.2.x tree won't get much love from now on. This would be nice to have in the LTS.

[Stéphane Graber (stgraber)]

Ubuntu is also carrying a delta with Debian for patches/220-honor-pid-file.patch and patches/221-apt-ubuntu-changes.patch.

It'd be great to make sure these got merged either upstream or in Debian before doing a sync from unstable.

Why not from testing?

liblog-log4perl-perl is in universe. That package will have to be promoted to main.

Should all the new binary packages be promoted to main as well?

Hi,

I'm one of the munin package maintainers in debian.

+1 It would be great to see munin 1.4.0 in the next LTS release.

Also, we've done a lot of work to reduce the number of patches in the debian package (which went down from over 60 patches, to 2), making the package maintenance somewhat easier.

Regarding the 2 patches that ubuntu is using:
patches/220-honor-pid-file.patch - it looks like this patch is no longer applied since munin (1.2.6-1ubuntu2).
patches/221-apt-ubuntu-changes.patch - Fixing this upstream to work both on debian & ubuntu would be the best.

My guess is that we will most likely see a munin 14.1 not too long from now, so there's still a chance to include changes like this upstream.

liblog-log4perl-perl needs a main inclusion report. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MainInclusionProcess

[Chuck Short (zulcss)]

liblog-log4perl-perl can also become a suggests.

Regards
chuck

[Tom Feiner (feiner-tom)]

liblog-log4perl-perl in suggest won't work, as munin master really depends on log4perl, if it's not there it'll simply not work.

[Chuck Short (zulcss)]

@Michael,

Can you do the main inclusion report please?

Thanks
chuck

[Loïc Minier (lool)]

Removing sponsors from subscribers until we have a MIR; thanks!

[Michael Jeanson (mjeanson)]

On it.

[Chuck Short (zulcss)]

Thanks

[Michael Jeanson (mjeanson)]

I wrote the MIR at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MIRliblog-log4perl-perl but by doing so, I discovered that the package build-depends on 2 packages in universe who in turn depends on 3 packages in universe. This means we have 5 other MIRs to write, right?

Lets get this synched and we can worry about the MIR reports after. Updated debian changelog is below.

===============================

 munin (1.4.3-2) unstable; urgency=low

   [ Stig Sandbeck Mathisen ]
   * Add versioned dependency for librrds-perl.
     If used with librrds-perl 1.2 or older, the font path is wrong.

   [ Tom Feiner ]
   * Update watch file.
   * Add patch from munin ticket #828, to suppress "occasional" unknown
     states to avoid alerts. Thanks to Steve Wilson for the patch!
   * Removed asterisks from NEWS.Debian and rewrite as non bulleted list, as
     advised by the developers reference.

[Steve Langasek (vorlon)]

munin has been uninstallable from the Lucid Server CD for a month now, so I think these MIRs are long overdue.

The full list of affected packages which need to be sorted out, by MIR or dropped dependencies, is:

liblog-log4perl-perl
 libdbd-csv-perl
  libsql-statement-perl
  libtext-csv-xs-perl
 liblog-dispatch-perl
  libparams-validate-perl
   libreadonly-xs-perl
    libreadonly-perl
   libtest-kwalitee-perl
    libmodule-cpants-analyse-perl
     libarchive-any-perl
      file-mmagic
      libmodule-find-perl
      libtest-warn-perl
       libtree-dagnode-perl
     libarray-diff-perl
     libcpan-distnameinfo-perl
     libfile-slurp-perl
     libio-capture-perl
     libsoftware-license-perl
      libdata-section-perl
       libmro-compat-perl
        libclass-c3-perl
         libalgorithm-c3-perl
         libclass-c3-xs-perl
       libpod-coverage-trustpod-perl
        libpod-eventual-perl
         libmixin-linewise-perl
       libsub-exporter-perl
        libdata-optlist-perl
      libsub-install-perl
       libtest-perl-critic-perl
        libperl-critic-perl
         libb-keywords-perl
         libemail-address-perl
         libexception-class-perl
          libclass-data-inheritable-perl
          libdevel-stacktrace-perl
         libfile-homedir-perl
         libfile-which-perl
         libpod-spell-perl
         libstring-format-perl
         perltidy
      libtext-template-perl
     libtest-yaml-meta-perl
      libtest-yaml-valid-perl
       libyaml-libyaml-perl
   libtest-taint-perl

[Steve Langasek (vorlon)]

I've determined that liblog-log4perl-perl doesn't seem to actually use these build-dependencies at build time (no evidence that the test suite is even being run, let alone that it fails if these modules are absent), so have uploaded log4perl without them. That leaves just the one package in need of MIR.

[Michael Jeanson (mjeanson)]

MIR done in bug #526480

[Thierry Carrez (ttx)]

Remaining work is covered by bug 526480 so that should be the milestoned one. Closing this one and targeting/milestoning the other.
