Bug Description

Binary package hint: munin

I've upgraded my munin-node instance on my OpenVZ hardware node to 1.4.5-1 from Debian testing, but this caused the list of services to be empty (via "telnet localhost 4949", then "list").

Downgrading to 1.4.4-1~blueyedppa2 (basically a backport of 1.4.4-1 from Debian).

There are plugins installed (quite a lot), and I can run them manually using munin-run.

TEST CASE:

Install a new machine with uppercase letters in the hostname (Maverick.example.com) and install munin-node then run the following commands:
# telnet localhost 4949
> nodes
> list Maverick.example.com

or run

# su - munin --shell=/bin/bash -c munin-cron

Subscribing ubuntu-sponsors. I hope it's OK to have the package linked like that.
Otherwise I might push a branch tonight.

Was this only pushed to Natty? This issue is also present in Maverick, can we get it pushed out there as well?

This would require a Stable Release Update.
Please refer to the documentation at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SRU about how to proceed regarding this.

SRU: minimal patch for Maverick has been submitted in bzr

Nominating for SRU, fulfills: (1) have an obviously safe patch and (2) affect an application rather than critical infrastructure packages

The fix is from upstream and has been verified in Natty.

Regarding the SRU for Maverick:
The following issues have been found by ari-tczew looking at the patch (#ubuntu-motu):
- debian/changelog should have maverick-proposed as pocket instead of maverick
- you are patching node/lib/Munin/Node/Server.pm directly, instead of using the patch system (where you are referring to upstream_bug_952.patch, but not including it). Please add the patch instead of patching the source directly.
