[Slackbuilds-users] mrtg-2.15.2 breaks with latest slackware-current

Thu Jan 6 14:36:57 UTC 2011

Hi everyone,

on jan 4th I installed the latest updates for slackware-current. after that, mrtg-2.15.2 from slackbuilds failed with the message

Bareword "P_DETACH" not allowed while "strict subs" in use at/usr/bin/../lib/mrtg2/MRTG_lib.pm line 1133.
Compilation failed in require at /usr/bin/mrtg line 89.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/bin/mrtg line 89.

A recompile didn't help. As there's currently no newer version for mrtg on slackbuilds, I downloaded mrtg-2.17.0.tar.gz source code from oetiker's page and compiled it. It works well. I posted this quick note on LinuxQuestions and they suggested to inform the package maintainer and cc the slackbuilds-users list.

regards - uli
