Title: RPM/DEB: Verifying python version during install when shipping python plugins
Component: agents
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.4.0i3
The agent packages shipped by the agent bakery may contain agent plugins that need
a python interpreter on the target system. The Debian- and RPM-packages built by
the agent bakery are now verifying that the python interpreter is installed as
'python' in the PATH and also verify that this python is Python 2.x. The later check
is needed because the Python agent plugins are currently only Python 2.x compatible.

Title: cmk-update-agent: Interactive call now works correctly with changed config path
Component: agents
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.4.0i3
The agent updater needs access to the Check_MK agent configuration directory, e.g. to
read it's own config. When this directory is changed from /etc/check_mk using the
WATO ruleset "Installation paths for agent files (Linux, UNIX)", the interactive call
of the agent updater was not able to find it's configuration anymore. When the program
is installed via the bakery packed packages, the updater now knows about the custom
path and finds it's configuration correctly.

Title: Livestatus proxy: Can now connect via unix socket to the local site
Component: Livestatus
Level: 1
Class: New feature
Version: 1.4.0b1
The livestatus proxy daemon can now be configured also for the local site.
Even when this is the local site, this makes sense, because the proxy daemon
can now also multiplex connections and cache queries for the local site.

Title: cmk-update-agent.exe: Cleaning up abandoned _MEI<ID> directories from %TEMP%
Component: agents
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.4.0b1
When the agent updater process crashes it may leave some directories named "_MEI<ID>"
in the %TEMP% path. These directories are now cleaned up automatically on subsequent
executions of the agent updater.

Title: New report element "Multiple graphs"
Component: Reporting & Availability
Level: 2
Class: New feature
Version: 1.4.0b1
In case you want to add graphs of a dynamic collection
of services, for example all "CPU load" graphs of all hosts
that are tagged as productive hosts, you could only create
a "view" report element, specify the filters and add a single
painter showing the graphs of the service to the view. This
was working for some cases, but produced strange layout issues
in some cases. You could also not filter the single graphs of
the servvices. It was always showing all graphs of the services.
Now you can use the "Multiple graphs" report element to select
a collection of hosts/services to show the graphs. You can
configure this element to show only the N'th graphs of the
hosts/services. And you have many options to configure the
graph rendering to fit your needs now.
