[Bug 444485] [NEW] gmetad doesn't start after installation of ganglia-monitor (gmond)

[Juri Haberland]

Public bug reported:

On Ubuntu Karmic beta1:
If the package ganglia-monitor-3.1.2-2  is installed after gmetad-3.1.2-2, gmetad won't start anymore due to wrong ownership of /var/lib/ganglia/rrds:
/usr/sbin/gmetad[11457]: Please make sure that /var/lib/ganglia/rrds is owned by nobody

Gmetad should use the user 'ganglia' for directory ownership as the
package ganglia-monitor does.

Fix:
change the ownership of /var/lib/ganglia/rrds from nobody to ganglia and 
set the config option "setuid_username" in /etc/ganglia/gmetad.conf to "ganglia".
