[Bug 523397] Re: new monit version available (monit-5.1)

[Martin Pala]

Please is it possible to update monit package to 5.1? There no security
fixes in the new release, but several important functional bugfixes:

* Support resource monitoring (cpu usage, etc.) when Monit is running
  inside virtual environment. Tested on:
      - FreeBSD jail
      - Solaris zone
      - Linux Vserver

* Send heartbeat to M/Monit even if Monit is busy in a long testing cycle to prevent
  false alerts about non-responsive Monit agent.

* Fixed SMTP protocol test which may sometimes incorrectly
  report ESMTP protocol failure. Thanks to Axel Reinhold for
  report.

* Fixed content match check which reported only first
  match during the same cycle. Thanks to Pavel Shevaev for
  report.
  
* Allow for the use of complete SSL certificate chains. 
  Thanks to Lawrence Tan for patch.

* Added support for multiline greetings to FTP protocol test.
  Thanks to Giovanni D'Cristina for report.

* Fix Debian Bug #541139: uses gethostbyname() and thus does
  not work with "options inet6" in /etc/resolv.conf. Thanks to
  Michael Stapelberg for patch.

* If Monit configuration allowed http interface access for a read-only
  user and it was specified as the first allow entry, Monit command line
  commands failed because it used the read-only account so commands
  like start, stop, etc. were rejected. Monit will now use full access
  regardless of allow option order. Thanks to Thorsten Kampe for report.

* Passive monitoring mode fixed. Thanks to Nelson Vale for report.

* Fixed #27784: wait_start/wait_stop can advance too quickly.
  Thanks to Randy Puro for report.

* Fixed #28369: escape XML properly

* Check service name uniqueness when 'check system' is missing in monitrc and virtual
  system service with name set to local hostname is added. Thanks to Marcus Muelbuesch
  for report.

* Fix crash when queued event delivery was retried for service which was no longer
  configured in Monit.


** Changed in: monit (Ubuntu)
