Xymon 4.3.19-rc1 available 🔗 link

Hello all!

A pre-release (RC1) candidate of Xymon 4.3.19 has been posted to
SourceForge and should be slowly making its way through the mirror system
now! You can pick it up at:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/xymon/files/Xymon/4.3.19-rc1/


There are a fair number of bug fixes in it, so I'd definitely appreciate
as many people as possible taking it for a spin. WinPS Client processing
should be better supported, and a number of issues with logfetch have been
fixed (particularly in unusual filtration and regex situations). Please
see the RELEASENOTES and Changelog for a full list.


New features include additional "xymondboard" filters, EXTIME= rule
support, compiler/building fixes,  more efficient operation while running
in --debug mode.


If you notice any (new) bugs, or if I missed any patches or current
issues, let me know! If no major problems pop up, I'm shooting to release
4.3.19 final some time this weekend.


Regards,

  You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
  You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Am I missing something?

Hi J.C.,

Tom,


I think this is a result of the CentOS 7 not quite having released the
RHEL7.1 update/release set yet. (And the suggested requirement for all
selinux-policy pulls is version-specific to what the policy was compiled
with.)

Per below it should be coming out RSN:
http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2015-March/020980.html
but for now you can get it by enabling the CentOS-CR repository, or
directly by something like

http://mirrors.vpsie.com/centos/7/cr/x86_64/Packages/selinux-policy-3.13.1-23.el7.noarch.rpm


That being said, I haven't updated the Terabithia RPMs to RC1 just yet.
Hope to have those up by end-of-day.
