thanks for the login :) I was able to resolve almost all problems:

Apparently the <arpa/nameser.h> file is somehow connected with BIND.
There's a define that tells you about the `interface' that's implemented
in the header file. On my workstation that's
  #define __NAMESER 19991006
which is accompanied by arpa/nameser_compat.h, which defines the
``(DEAD) interface version stamp.''
  #define __BIND 19950621

On your OpenBSD 4.1 box the version is defined as
  #define __BIND 19960801

By the way: The version of Bind is 9.3.4 on both hosts, so this isn't
related.

Based on these versions I've written a version of src/utils_dns.c which

Version 4.0.5 available

Hi everybody,

I've fixed some build issues under OpenBSD (thanks to Eric for providing
me with a test account, it was very useful :), so all plugins (except
the Perl plugin) will build now.

If you've had trouble building collectd on some platform this release
may be worth a look.

[PATCH] parser.y: Allow an argument list to be empty.

This allows you to specify options without any or optional arguments in the
config file. This is quite useful to e.g. implement "flag" options to change
program behavior in just one way where the opposite way does not make sense or
is not possible at all.

Collectd 4.0.5 spec file working on Fedora 7

Hi,

Here is a spec file that seems to be working on Fedora 7 for collectd 4.0.5
Only trivial changes to get it working.

Regards
Kjell Randa

Collectd 4.0.5 Fedora 7 spec file

Hi,

Here is a working spec file for Fedora 7.
Copy the tar.gz file to /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES and run rpmbuild -ba 
collectd.spec
It has only been tested on  x86_64, but I well see if I can find time to 
test on x86 as well.

Upgrade not tested.

The file /etc/collection.conf referenced in collection.cgi is missing in 
the tar file and not installed by the spec file.

Kjell Randa

[PATCH] configure.in: Generate version dynamically using version-gen.sh.

This dynamically creates the version string when the configure script is
created. If run from within a repository the output of "git describe" is
used to create the version string. Else it defaults to a hardcoded value
which should be something like "$latest_version.git".

The idea is to update the default version to the new version (without
".git" appended) as the last commit of a release cycle. This commit is
tagged as the new version. The next commit after the release will set the
default version to "$new_version.git".

The benefit is that a pre-release with a quite well defined and unique
version can be easily created at any time.
