Hello

It would be nice to have my zabbix_agentd update in this core update
too, which I provided at the start of previous week and seems to be
requested by a community member
(https://community.ipfire.org/t/zabbix-agent-on-stable-release/3636)
since October.

And of course as a newbie here I can't wait for my submission to be
reviewed/included. But that should of course not be the reason to try
to squeeze it in this update. And apart from that, other than the fact
that the current version of zabbix_agentd is very old (august 2019), I
don't see any sudden urgent reasons to really have this package
included in update 156 as it already was not updated for so long.. 
And I understand, seeing how much patches where submitted here in the
meantime, that the priorities currently are not set on some arbitrary
addon package like zabbix_agentd.
So I guess it can wait for 157. 

I also noticed that in the meantime there is a Zabbix Agent v5.0.10
(LTS) available, so I will re-submit my patchset shortly upgrading
current 4.2.6 to 5.0.10. And then hopefully have it included in 157?
Unless you still see a possibility to have it included in 156? :-)

Regards

Robin
