Package: mrtg Version: 2.17.2-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
The cron file look for a WorkDir in config file before actually running mrtg. The problem is it do not ignore commented lines, and thus the test fail and prevent mrtg from running. In my cron file below I added a "grep -v ^#" in order to skip commented lines and make things work.
