Package: pnp4nagios
Version: 0.6.16-2
Severity: normal
Tags: d-i
Dear Maintainer,
after apt-get upgrade npcd refused to start.
We use icinga and pnp4nagios:
ii icinga 1.7.1-4 amd64 host and network monitoring system - metapackage
ii icinga-cgi 1.7.1-4 amd64 host and network monitoring system - CGI scripts
ii icinga-common 1.7.1-4 all host and network monitoring system - support files
ii icinga-core 1.7.1-4 amd64 host and network monitoring system - core files
pnp4nagios packages see below; npcdmod.
User/Group: icinga:icinga
I already had problems, when I installed pnp4nagios 0.6.16-1. I had to change
all ownerships on the relevant directories and files.
After the upgrade the npcd didn't start, no performance data was collected and
written. The ownerships had been rewritten to nagios:nagios. I had to re-change
all ownerships and start the icinga process manually. After that, everything
worked fine.
Would it be possible, to check user:group of the installation?

What we did to make it work:

chown icinga /var/log/pnp4nagios

After all that without any dpkg* or apt-*-command everything looks fine:
