Package: sensord
Version: 1:3.1.2-6
Severity: important

The sensord(8) man page says about the RRD graph generation:

              sensord --load-average \
                --rrd-file /var/log/sensord.rrd \
                --rrd-cgi /var/www/sensord \
                > /usr/lib/cgi-bin/sensord.cgi
              chmod a+rx /usr/lib/cgi-bin/sensord.cgi

However, by doing this and opening http://localhost/cgi-bin/sensord.cgi
I get a 500 Internal Server Error. From the apache2 logs, it appears
that this script cannot be run ("No such file or directory" error).
The reason is that this script starts with #!/usr/bin/rrdcgi and
/usr/bin/rrdcgi is provided by the rrdtool package. But this is not
mentioned at all in the sensord dependencies.

"Depends" would be too strong, because users may only want to get
logs (i.e. not using RRD). Then I don't know whether it should be
"Recommends" or "Suggests".

But perhaps there should also be a "Recommends" or "Suggests" on
"httpd | apache" (as an example, mailgraph recommends that). BTW,
httpd or httpd-cgi?
