Package: sysstat Version: 8.1.2-2 Severity: wishlist Debian ships with the sa1 script disabled and states that sar will produce a missing file message. In this situation, sar should instead tell the user that collection is disabled.
By doing so, the user goes to the docs looking for how to enable the data collection, rather than looking for help on why the software seems to be broken. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages sysstat depends on: ii bzip2 1.0.5-1 high-quality block-sorting file co ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.24 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.7-16 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii lsb-base 3.2-20 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii ucf 3.0011 Update Configuration File: preserv Versions of packages sysstat recommends: ii cron 3.0pl1-105 management of regular background p Versions of packages sysstat suggests: pn isag <none> (no description available) -- debconf information: sysstat/remove_files: true sysstat/enable: false -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
