Re: [Devmon] devmon 0.3.0 beta1 released

[Schwimmer, E. E *H. <EE...@hs...>]

Found a not-so-little bug in the validate_deps subroutine.  Basically if
you were a using a transform with more than one non-repeater oid in the
transform message, the resulting transformed oid would always have a
color value of 'clear' (yikes).  A good example would be the BEST
transform used during the apc 'power' tests.

The devmon tarball on sf.net has been updated, but in case you already
downloaded the beta version and just want to patch it, please use the
attached file.
