* debian/patch/lp615509_curl_json.dpatch:
  - permit check of local files with curl_json (LP: #615509)

14. By Sebastian Harl on 2009-12-26

* New upstream release:
  - Now using libtool 2.
* Set urgency to medium because of the fix for #559801.
* Split the "collectd" binary package into "collectd-core" and "collectd".
  The former provides the main program file and the plugins while the latter
  provides the configuration. This allows for much more flexible setups
  (e.g. providing customizations on top of "collectd-core" without modifying
  the "collectd" package) and, amongst others, removes the hard dependency
  on librrd (Closes: #495936, #544311).
* debian/collectd-core.collectd.init.d:
  - Do not (try to) start collectd if the config file does not exist. Else,
    installation of "collectd-core" (which does not provide configuration)
    would fail.
* debian/collectd.postinst:
  - Let the "collectd" package restart the daemon, since it provides the
    config file.
* debian/collectd.links:
  - Symlink /u/s/d/collectd/examples to /u/s/d/collectd-core/examples.
* debian/control:
  - Build-depend on the right combination of libsnmp-dev and perl. Perl's
    CFLAGS (included in net-snmp's CFLAGS) introduced '-fstack-protector' in
    version 5.10.1 on some architectures (those supporting that features).
    net-snmp has been fixed to handle that correctly in 5.4.2.1~dfsg-4;
    thanks to Lamont Jones and Dann Frazier for reporting this
    (Closes: #559087).
  - Build-depend on libsensors4-dev rather than libsensors-dev. libsnmp-dev,
    starting with version 5.4.2.1~dfsg-5, supports libsensors4, thus making
    that possible. This restores the full functionality of the "sensors"
    plugin, which does not work well with libsensors3 and lm-sensors-3;
    thanks to Anssi Kolehmainen for reporting this (Closes: #538795).
  - Build-depend on libltdl-dev to make it possible to use the system-wide
    libltdl.
  - No longer conflict/provide/replace the pre-Lenny "collectd-$plugin"
    packages.
  - Update the list of collectd-core's suggestions: added various services
    providing data that may be collected by collectd. Downgraded lm-sensors
    from a recommendation to a suggestion.
* debian/patches:
  - Removed gmond-fix-compile-error.dpatch -- included upstream.
  - Added bts561577_collectd2html_recursive_fix.dpatch -- fixed
    collectd2html.pl's recursive mode and improved some defaults; thanks to
    Yuri D'Elia for reporting this and providing a patch (Closes: #561577).
  - Added bts557599_powerdns_fix.dpatch -- fixed communication to pdns
    versions 2.9.22 and above; thanks to <email address hidden> for reporting this
    and Luke Heberling for providing the patch (Closes: #557599).
  - Added bts559801_plugin_find_fix.dpatch -- make collectd resistant
    against copies of libltdl affected by CVE-2009-3736. This fixes a
    potential but very unlikely security issue, e.g. found in the embedded
    copy. For details about how collectd might be affected, see
    <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=559801#15>; thanks to
    Michael Gilbert for reporting this (Closes: #559801).
* debian/rules:
  - Pass --without-included-ltdl to configure to tell libtool 2 to not use
    the shipped libltdl but rather the one available in the system. Thus,
    in the future, libltdl related issues do no longer require updated
    collectd packages.
  - Pass --disable-static to configure to tell libtool 2 to not build any
    static libraries.
  - Install debian/collectd.conf as an example into "collectd-core".
  - Output the content of config.log if configure fails -- this might help
    debugging.
* debian/README.Debian:
  - Added a short explanation of the package split.

* New upstream release.
  - Fixed another issue of the sensors plugin affecting some chip types
    (Closes: #468143).
  - Fixed creation of "vserver" graphs in collection.cgi (Closes: #475120).

6. By Sebastian Harl on 2008-02-19

* New upstream release.
  - Added basic support for monitoring by introducing notifications and
    threshold checking.
  - Reverse lookups can be disabled using the "ReverseLookups" option of the
    ntpd plugin (Closes: #455162).
  New plugins:
  - Set the hostname to an unique identifier: uuid
  - CPU, dist, network statistics of guest systems: libvirt
* Upload to unstable: With the latest changes to the perl plugin, all parts
  of collectd are suitable for a release.
* Added libvirt-dev, libxml2-dev and libhal-dev to the build dependencies.
* Updated package description to mention the monitoring support.
* Install liboping/oping.h to collectd-dev as well.
* collectd.init.d: Optionally start collectdmon to monitor collectd. This
  can be configured using the USE_COLLECTDMON variable - enabled by default.
* collectd.init.d: Added ENABLE_COREFILES option - if enabled the core file
  limit will be set to unlimited - disabled by default.
* Compile collectd with -DLT_LAZY_OR_NOW='RTLD_LAZY|RTLD_GLOBAL' to force
  lt_dlopen() to use the RTLD_GLOBAL flag which is required by the perl
  plugin (which would otherwise be unable to find symbols defined in libperl
  when loading perl modules that require such symbols).
* Disable debugging support.
* watch file: Added uversionmangle for "beta" and "-rc".
* Override "spelling-error-in-description" for the mysql plugin name - all
  plugins are spelled lowercase.
