All graph titles missing

I just did a fresh install of 4.3.0-RC1 last night and copied over just my
custom graph definitions from hobbitgraphs.cfg.
The graph data itself looks great, and I am getting all of my original
graphs.
 
The problem is that I don't see anything in the title areas around the
graphs.
Has anybody seen anything like that?  I am sure it's something I did in the
upgrade, but I can't find anything like it in the docs.

On your custom graphs only, or on all of the graphs (including the
standard ones) ?

Can you show me a sample of the definition from graphs.cfg that is
not working ? And perhaps one of the broken graphs ?

It impacts all graphs - both custom and default.
Here is one from my server's trends page:
xymon_trends_graphs.png: http://www.filesavr.com/AP6ZD40QJ4DUS5R
And another of the xymongen column:
xymon_xymongen_graph.png: http://www.filesavr.com/CBY8KM9523UQHH9

I am guessing it helps more to look at xymongen than any of my custom stuff.

Here is the xymongen graphs definition
[xymongen]
        TITLE xymongen Runtime
        YAXIS Seconds
        DEF:rt=xymongen.rrd:runtime:AVERAGE
        AREA:rt#00CCCC:Run Time
        COMMENT:\n
        GPRINT:rt:LAST: \: %5.1lf (cur)
        GPRINT:rt:MAX: \: %5.1lf (max)
        GPRINT:rt:MIN: \: %5.1lf (min)
        GPRINT:rt:AVERAGE: \: %5.1lf (avg)\n
Thanks for taking a look!

Looks like an RRDtool problem. Are you using rrdtool 1.2, perhaps?
Font handling there was ... interesting - run "rrdtool version"
to check what version you have.

This post has some info about a similar problem:

It's 1.4.1, but your response on that thread gives me someplace to start.
I'll see if I can manually get rrdtool to produce some graphs and see if
they are the same.

If you think of anything else, let me know...but it sounds like it is a
problem on my side and nothing to do with 4.3.0.

Thanks!

Got it...
It turned out that I had both rrdtool 1.2.0 and 1.4.4 installed.  It seems
that the xymon-4.2.3 install picked up 1.4.4 in the config, but the xymon
4.3.0-RC1 install picked up 1.2.0 instead (found that by following your
suggestion of doing an ldd on server/bin/showgraph.cgi and comparing that to
the old server/bin/hobbitgraph.cgi).

I pulled both rrdtool packages off and compiled/installed 1.4.5, then
re-compiled/installed xymon RC1 and everything worked on the first try.

Thanks for the pointer at the old version of rrdtool!
