[Bug 699967] Re: Empty list of plugins/services with hostname containing uppercase letters

[BK Box]

SRU: minimal patch for Maverick has been submitted in bzr

Nominating for SRU, fulfills: (1) have an obviously safe patch and (2)
affect an application rather than critical infrastructure packages

The fix is from upstream and has been verified in Natty.

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: munin
  
  I've upgraded my munin-node instance on my OpenVZ hardware node to
  1.4.5-1 from Debian testing, but this caused the list of services to be
  empty (via "telnet localhost 4949", then "list").
  
  Downgrading to 1.4.4-1~blueyedppa2 (basically a backport of 1.4.4-1 from
  Debian).
  
  There are plugins installed (quite a lot), and I can run them manually
  using munin-run.
+ 
+ TEST CASE:
+ 
+ Install a new machine with uppercase letters in the hostname (Maverick.example.com) and install munin-node then run the following commands:
+ # telnet localhost 4949
+ > nodes
+ > list Maverick.example.com
+ 
+ or run
+ 
+ # su - munin --shell=/bin/bash -c munin-cron
