      I previously used vnstat2 on 2.0.3 and found it very useful. When I unpgraded to 2.1 vnstat2 failed.

      Question - once the updated files have been uploaded should I update vnstat2 - or remove it completely and reinstall fresh?

      How to know when updated files are all available and ready to install?

      Thanks - sorry for poor understanding :)

        @anaxagoras:

        any walkthrough to manually install?

        Pretty lengthy I would wait.

        The version will changed to 1.11_1 uninstall and resinstall I think the database should be left intact. If you wish to back it up back up the /cf/conf/vnstat folder

                        anything yet? i'm sure the devs are busy with life or other things but this is getting frustrating.

                          All we can do is wait. 10 days so far is disappointing.

                            They normally dont take this long… Email Chris the link of the push request directly.

                              I have emailed him, Ermal, core, posted at dev mailinglist, tried irc, maybe jimp etc. They are aware of it I am sure. You can try emailing them if you would like.

                                I sent Jimp a PM. He may or may not be able to fix it but anything to help bring attention to this issue would be good.  :)

                                EDIT: Nevermind, I forgot that he didn't want PMs asking for help.

                                  did you piss off one of the devs?  Insult with one of their spouses?  From what I've read merging your commits shouldn't be a big ordeal.

                                  I know I asked before and you said it would be too difficult to manually install, but is there any way you can make this into a pkg that we can just manually load?

                                  I really want/need your package because i'm looking to change ISPs to one with bandwidth caps and could really use some trending for a month or two first.

                                    Really it's still broken!?  All joking aside this is absurd.  I don't understand why it's so difficult to get a patch through unless there's something else going on.  Either politics is at play, or it's not a simple fix to apply the patch.

                                      Think they must have been cooking up a new license agreement. I have now signed a contributor license agreement and sent it back to them. I am guessing that they will be able to merge in my pull request now. Or at least I would hope.

                                          bryan - thanks, well worth waiting for!!

                                          Installed on 2.1 running on ALIX 2D13. Installed with no issues straight from "add packages". Didn't need to change / add anything - worked well straight away

                                          Thanks again
