mrtg (2.17.8+git20211022.f52e91e-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  Initially I would like to say thank you to Tobias Oetiker, the MRTG author.
  Tobias worked over the source code and accepted several pull requests from me
  around one month. The MRTG Project also received patches from this package.

  This revision comes with several relevant changes:

    - MRTG no longer uses cron to start. From now MRTG will start in Debian via
      systemd/init.d scripts.
    - Now, MRTG runs over the new 'mrtg' user/group instead of 'root'.
    - The --fhs option is being used to put all needed files in the right
      places in the system. All patches that were changing directly the paths
      in the source code were removed and, consequently, the original MRTG is
      available to users that like to run it in a local directory (e.g. in a
      home dir).
    - The configuration file was moved to /etc/mrtg/ directory.

  The main changes from the new upstream version (future 2.17.9, not released
  yet) can be viewed below:

    - The --fhs option was updated from 2.3 to 3.0 version.
    - From now MRTG will create all paths required by --fhs option, like
      /run/mrtg/, when needed.

  Please, read /usr/share/doc/mrtg/README.Debian for more details.
