[Slackbuilds-users] ganglia is missing, is it not needed anymore?

Jeremy,

Yes this helps. I successfully built ganglia and ganglia-web and was 
able to get it running (over multiple stations). So it seems to work. I 
did need to make a few changes manually in the filesystem which I don't 
remember to be needed before. So I want to check if this was needed 
before. Otherwise I'll add a readme to explain this.

kind regards
