@Kyle Gordon the problem is that:
* this bug is marked as "fix released", so no one is going to pay much attention to the continuing discussion * the "released" "fix" has NOT been released for lucid, but i don't see any way to clarify that in this bug report's metadata i don't see any possible solutions except: * raise more stink here in the bug report * email the ubuntu package maintainers about the problem * patch the package yourself. in my case, where the "released" "fix" just changes the brokenness, but doesn't really fix it, the situation is even less hopeful: * i can't open a new bug against the broken "fix" (proposing my above patch and trying to get this bug more visibility) because the fix hasn't been released yet for lucid (ie nobody will care about a bug report for an unreleased package version) * i've even reported the problem to debian's net-snmp packaging team (http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-net-snmp-devel/2010-November/001007.html) to which no one responded, so it appears nobody (debian or ubuntu) cares i'm just building my own net-snmp packages for lucid with my patch and will do the same when the equivalent "fixed" package is released in debian squeeze (i have ubuntu desktops and debian servers; it won't be the first time i've supported my own package version due to unresponsive package maintainers). i've had good success with debian & ubuntu net- snmp maintainers in the past (http://bugs.debian.org/274624 & https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/lucid-changes/2010-June/011350.html), but nobody seems to be paying attention this time. i feel sorry for users who are unable to patch & build their own package versions. ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #274624 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=274624 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/506865 Title: snmp-net not working with lm-sensors -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
