From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 Galeon/1.2.6 (X11; Linux i686; U;) Gecko/20020830 Description of problem: The change log for sysstat says: - isag is no longer installed by default upstream, removing requirement on gnuplot Isag was only moved to a contrib directory. Isag is a useful utility and is still part of the sysstat distribution. Please restore isag to the distribution. Perhaps a separate .noarch.rpm would be advisable, to minimise sysstat's dependencies. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install sysstat-4.0.5-3 2. Run isag Actual Results: -bash: isag: command not found Expected Results: Isag runs. Additional info:
Since i submitted this bug, i've built an rpm package for isag (http://paulgear.webhop.net/linux/RPMS/noarch/isag-4.1.1-1.noarch.rpm), and talked to the author of isag, who has released it as a separate package at http://sourceforge.net/projects/linmon/. You might want to get the update from there. I'll try to release a new version of my rpm soon if you want to start with that...
I'm a bit wary adding isag back because it's tcl/tk and it's a bit hard to maintain, despite that it's a bit too late for FC2. WONTFIX for FC2 and unless you can convince me to maintain something tcl/tk I'll leave it that way ;-). I'd rather suggest to submit your package to fedora.us/Fedora Extras instead.
Sounds fine to me - i've just recently built a new version of isag (using the author's version numbers instead of sysstat's). It can be found at http://paulgear.webhop.net/linux/RPMS/noarch/isag-0.81.0a-1.noarch.rpm for now, and i'll work on getting it into Fedora Extras when i have the leisure.
