Bug Description

Binary package hint: collectd

Debian has a new version to be merged.

 collectd (4.4.2-3) unstable; urgency=low

   * New debconf template translation:
     - nl.po, thanks to Eric Spreen (Closes: #502204).
     - sv.po, thanks to Martin Bagge (Closes: #504248).
   * debian/patches:
     - Added pod-errors.dpatch to fix some minor POD errors.
   * debian/rules:
     - Remove generated manpages in the clean target to avoid cluttering the
       source diff with the rebuilt manpages.

     - Fixed a wrong type used in the "tail" plugin example.

One of your changes, "Tighten libupsclient1-dev dependency", retains a versioned Build-Depends on libupsclient1-dev (>> 2.2.2-8ubuntu1). After looking through changelog entries and bug reports, I was unable to see a reason for this change. However, if I had to guess, I would guess it had to do with needing the nut user in the dialout group or needing the configuration files in /etc/nut. If you could please verify if this change is still needed (and if so, why it is needed), I would be more than glad to upload the new version.

Also, in the future, please try and use a bug title similar to "Please merge <package> <version> (<section>) from Debian <version> (<section>)". I have taken care of changing this bug title. It would also make it much easier to review the merge if you provided the relevant Debian changelog entries in the bug description, attached an Ubuntu->Ubuntu debdiff, and attached your merge changelog entry.

Daniel merged this package. However, the wrong bug was specified in debian/changelog, which is why this bug was not automatically closed.
