[Nagiosplug-help] Trouble compiling 1.4 plugins

[Justin Shore]

Thanks for the reply.  That's a very good question.  I forgot about fighting that battle until you mentioned it just now.  Late last week I came across the radiusclient issue and started working on it.  I upgraded ppp thinking that perhaps it would fix the problem.  The upgrade removed my /usr/include/radiusclient.h.  That started me down a long and winding road of trying radiusclient-ng, different pppd versions and swearing a lot.  At one point the compile error was many times longer than what it is now.  Currently I have radiusclient-ng 0.5.0 and ppp 2.4.2-r10.  I also have the freeradius server installed.  I also currently have headers for both radiusclient and radiusclient-ng:

root at noc /usr/local/src/nagios/nagios-plugins-1.4#>  ls -l /usr/include/radiusclient*
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 14033 Jul  7 16:21 /usr/include/radiusclient-ng.h
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 13870 Jul  7 16:36 /usr/include/radiusclient.h

radiusclient.h is owned by ppp.  IIRC upgrading to 2.4.3-r6 removed the radiusclient.h file.  It's been a fun couple of weeks.

What do you think the fix will be for this problem?  Should the ppp package include the radiusclient header?
 
Thanks
 Justin
