The patches discussed here have not been taken into the offical ubuntu 
repositories yet. The bug is now in for more than a year and destroys some 
important features of the xymon webfrontend.

The Bug is fixed in the xymon packages of Ubuntu 13.4 (raring) and later, by 
modifying much more code than the patches showed here. But this packages also 
are containing modifications not suitable for a bugfix version of packages and 
are requiring lots of modifications when upgrading in a complex xymon 
environment. 

The most importent changes are taking: 
/etc/hobbit to /etc/xymon
/etc/hobbit/hobbitlauch.d to /etc/launch.d
/etc/hobbit/bb-hosts to /etc/xymon/hosts
/usr/lib/hobbit to /usr/lib/xymon
/var/lib/hobbit to /var/lib/xymon

All Config-Variables in hobbitserver.cfg and hobbit-client.cfg formerly 
containing the word HOBBIT are changed to XYMON. There might be some more 
changing, since I had a look at this new packages, but I'm still using only 
the old ones.

If you are installing a new xymon server this packages or even the ubuntu 
versions using it might be a good choice. Starting with one of these newer 
packages might prevent you from changing all the stuff mentioned above.


But I think it should be clear to everyone what this means to existing 
installations.


How to use the patches:

The Patches from #29 an #30 are applied to the packages for precise and lucid 
by copying them into the debian/patches of the source code and appending them 
to debian/patches/serial.

The Packages resulting from this, including the source-code can be found in my 
ppa:

Hope this was helpful.

Kind regards,
        Lars
