Hello Alexander,
ISTM that you did not answer about my point that the current configuration file is misleading, as the 'dont_blame_nrpe' option is ignored but there is no warning about that fact in the file nor in the log. If it had been the case, I would have lost much less time.
The "just compile your own package" is a laughable fix: If I wanted to do that, I would not use Debian in the first place.
Stop complaining,
You may understand that the decision you took to remove a feature was not a good one. This feature already had clear caveats that allow admins to make an informed decision, as the grownups they are. Mostly.
start maintaining packages.
I already contribute to several free softwares, although not by maintaining Debian packages: I cannot do everything, that is life.
It is a shame that all those complainers weren't able to build a "fixed" package.
I know I (probably) can, but then I have to manage de deployment and so, a significant effort which should not have been needed in the first place.
