Hello all,

After internal testing, I've moved the Terabithia xymon 4.3.18 RPM packages into the live repository at http://terabithia.org/rpms/xymon/. Packages are available for RHEL/CentOS 4 - 7, and Fedora 18 - 21, along with fping v3 packages for some of the older releases.

For those who had been tracking the /testing/ packages, there is little additional change since the last release... But for those who'd only been installing the stable packages, there have been *significant* deltas in the past year. Although we're using them in production here on our central servers (~4500 msgs/s!), I'd encourage very thorough testing before updating in your environment.

I do want to take this time to reiterate that these RPMs were never intended to be seen as "official" Xymon packages... and that THIS CONTINUES TO BE THE CASE. At the moment you should consider 4.3.18 existing solely in tarball form, downloadable from https://sourceforge.net/projects/xymon/.

That being said, I do hope that many of the bug fixes, QoL improvements, and some isolated additional features will make it into the 4.3.19 release, and converge even more into 4.x as time goes on.... so the more people pounding on this code the better. :)

I'd also like to encourage us to make a little more use of the xymon-developer mailing list for patch-level discussion and code review, leaving this primary list a little more general in scope. If you're not already subscribed to that, you can do so at https://sourceforge.net/p/xymon/mailman/xymon-developer/

Regards,
