+monitoring-plugins (2.1.2-3) unstable; urgency=medium
+
+ We switched again over to another radius library. This time radcli
+ to fix #822337. This makes it again necessary to migrate you radius
+ credentials from /etc/radiusclient/servers to /etc/radcli/servers
+ in case you are using check_radius.
+ Please install the new dependencies in this case if you don't install
+ Recommends by default. Those dependencies can be found in
+ /usr/share/doc/monitoring-plugins-standard/README.Debian.plugins.

+monitoring-plugins (2.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium
+
+ This software project was renamed by upstream. For more information
+ see https://www.monitoring-plugins.org/news/new-project-name.html.
+
+ We renamed the package(s) also, but we kept the directories
+ /etc/nagios-plugins/ and /usr/lib/nagios/plugins for now, cause
+ many other packages rely on them. Maybe we have to change that later.
+
+ We decided to set capabilities(7) for check_icmp and check_dhcp, when
+ possible. This means libcap2-bin needs to be installed and the
+ kernel (in our case this is linux) needs to support that. This
+ makes it possible to avoid suid bit set for those plugins.
+
+ We even switched over to freeradius-client to fix #721621. This makes
+ it necessary to migrate you radius credentials from
+ /etc/radiusclient-ng/servers to /etc/radiusclient/servers in case you
+ are using check_radius.
+
+ check_snmp is now evaluating negative values properly, but it might be
+ returning CRITICALs where it used to return OK and was ignored, if a
+ negative value turns out to actually be a valid value.
+ If negative values are valid, this can be worked around, by adding "~:"
+ to the warning/critical threshold : 100 -> ~:100

+nagios-plugins (1.4.15-6) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ Created a nagios-plugins-common package which ships files possibly needed
+ also by other plugin packages and should installed as dependency
+
+ Removed check_bgpstate and check_linux_raid, which are shiped in upstream
+ contrib/ and are not maintained there anymore. If you need a replacement
+ for check_linux_raid, have a look into check_raid from
+ nagios-plugins-contrib package.

+nagios-plugins (1.4.15-4) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ Moved linked libraries against nagios-plugins-standard from Depends to
+ Recommends and mention them in
+ /usr/share/doc/nagios-plugins-standard/README.Debian.plugins.

+
+nagios-plugins (1.4.14-2) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ Moved check_mailq to nagios-plugins-standard, because it requires the mailq
+ binary and it is shipped with postfix, exim, sendmail and qmail, which is
+ the plugin is intended to check.

+
+nagios-plugins (1.4.14-1) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ If your are using check_linux_raid.pl or check_bgpstate (respectively the
+ check_snmp_bgpstate), they will be removed sometime in the future, as
+ upstream will remove they shortly ... so be prepared!
+
+ The qstat package is not a dependency any more but recommanded. As Recommands
+ installed by default these days, there shouldn't much users effected. If you
+ have turned off the installation of recommanded packages and you are using
+ check_quake, please install the qstat package again.
+
+ For all non linux archs, we depend on inetutils-ping, since now. As actually
+ inetutils-ping doesn't support a deadlines option (see #565137), it will be
+ likely, that you will get plugin timeouts from check_ping. As iputils-ping
+ is not an option here, due it's not available, you have to deal with that.
+ The suggestion would be in this case, to migrate over to check_icmp.

+nagios-plugins (1.4.12-1) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ Removed default port of check_radius definition in favor of the ability to
+ specify it as 4th argument.

+
+nagios-plugins (1.4.5-3) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ ifstatus.cfg has changed. Now you have to provide a community in the first
+ argument ($ARG1$). Description and IfIndex moved to second argument ($ARG2$).
+
+ E.g.: use "check_ifstatus!public" instead of "check_ifstatus" as
+ check_command!
