[Bug 1000678] Re: [SRU] munin-memory plugin doesn't work on 64-bit 12.04 LTS

[James Page]

** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ munin-memory plugin doesn't work on 64-bit 12.04 LTS.  This prevents munin from collecting memory usage data.
+ 
+ [Development Fix]
+ Cherry picked patch from upstream VCS - http://munin-monitoring.org/changeset/4358.
+ 
+ [Stable Fix]
+ Same as development fix
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ None, the plugin is broken and changes are limited to this plugin only.
+ Fix accepted upstream.
+ 
+ [Original Bug Report]
  The error is on line 189, it gives this message which stops munin from being able to collect data:
- [Impact]
- munin-memory plugin doesn't work on 64-bit 12.04 LTS
+ 
  Use of qw(...) as parentheses is deprecated at ./memory line 189.
- [Workaround]
+ 
  Line 189 is as follows:
  
  or my $field qw(apps buffers swap cached free slab swap_cache
  page_tables vmalloc_used committed mapped active active_anon
  active_cache inactive inact_dirty inact_laundry inact_clean) {
  
  And needs to be changed to:
  
  or my $field (qw(apps buffers swap cached free slab swap_cache
  page_tables vmalloc_used committed mapped active active_anon
  active_cache inactive inact_dirty inact_laundry inact_clean)) {
  
  After this change it functions fine.
  
- [Development Fix]
- http://munin-monitoring.org/changeset/4358
- 
- [Stable Fix]
- Same as development fix
- 
- [Regression Potential]
- None, the plugin is broken.
