Description David Timms 2008-04-17 12:09:17 UTC 
Description of problem:
While trying to track down a selinux denial, I tried to run manually run the 5
minute interval scheduled mrtg command from /etc/cron.d/mrtg 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mrtg-2.15.1-8.fc9.i386
perl-SNMP_Session-1.08-4.fc9.noarch

How reproducible:
Two F8>F9Beta>2008-04-17 systems.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  LANG=C LC_ALL=C /usr/bin/mrtg /etc/mrtg/mrtg.cfg --lock-file \
/var/lock/mrtg/mrtg_l --confcache-file /var/lib/mrtg/mrtg.ok
  
Actual results:
warnings about redefined and prototype mismatch about AF_INET_6, PF_INET_6
see attached.

Expected results:
Silently complete.

Additional info:
May be due to changes in perl (perl-5.10.0-20.fc9.i386), since
on F8 (perl-5.8.8-38.fc8) this did not occur.

There are newer stable releases available.

Changes 2.15.2, 2007-04-29
--------------------------
...
From: Mike Mitchell Mike.Mitchell sas.com
* Updated Net_SNMP_util module (error messages)

Seems like it may resolve this, but I have not tested that.

I don't know if mrtg fails to run properly when this occurs.

After (2.16.1-1): 
[spot@localhost devel]$ sudo rpm -Uvh
/home/spot/cvs/sandbox/mrtg/devel/x86_64/mrtg-2.16.1-1.fc9.x86_64.rpm
Preparing...                ########################################### [100%]
   1:mrtg                   ########################################### [100%]
[spot@localhost devel]$ sudo LANG=C LC_ALL=C /usr/bin/mrtg /etc/mrtg/mrtg.cfg
--lock-file /var/lock/mrtg/mrtg_l --confcache-file /var/lib/mrtg/mrtg.ok
[spot@localhost devel]$

2.16.1 doesn't fix this bug directly, but I updated anyway, so that the patch
which does fix this bug would be against the latest from upstream.

Please confirm that this package resolves the issue for you:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=46559

If so, I'll ask for it to be tagged for F-9.
Comment 4 David Timms 2008-04-18 13:37:19 UTC 
I grabbed the i386 build and did a before and after test with 
$ yum localupdate mrtg-2.16... , 

and on the other machine with 
$ yum remove mrtg
$ yum localinstall mrtg-2.16...

Both machines now have no output when the above command from /etc/cron.d/mrtg is
run manually at the command line.

Note that I haven't performed a functionality test of the package at all.
Changed to resolved rawhide, since there is no resolved koji...
