Use of uninitialized value $ip in string eq at Hardware.pm

[mathieumd]

Looks like I have the same problem as #441.

But I installed the latest available Debian package (fusioninventory-agent-task-network_2.4-2_all.deb as listed here), and the two fixes from #526 doesn't seems to be present in this package, as my /usr/share/fusioninventory/lib/FusionInventory/Agent/Tools/Hardware.pm still has the old lines not fixed:

-         next if $ip eq '0.0.0.0';
+         next if (!defined($ip) || $ip eq '0.0.0.0');

Is there another source of official packages more frequently updated?

Hi @mathieumd

sorry, I missed to fix the linux deb installation page you're pointing. Actually packages are built by Debian and are available in Sid. 2.4-2 is then obsolete and you should use 2.4.2-2. I know the numbering is actually a little confusing...

I just updated the linux deb installation page with the link you should use.

You can notice a package has been added for the Collect task. This package is of course not mandatory and you should only install it if you need to collect file status from a Collect task in plugin.

As 2.4.2-2 version includes the fix you're looking for, I'm closing the issue.

Thank you for the doc update reminder O:)

I guess you meant 2.4.2-1, which is available in Buster, and contains the fix, right?

Regarding the documentation, I may be blind, but I still see version 2.4-2 (Method 1) and 2.3.10.1-1 (Method 2) on the page Installation on Debian and Ubuntu. It's confusing, since it looks like you recommend to download all packages from Debian repository and not your own (because it stops at version 2.4-2 versus 2.4.2-1 for Debian's?).

Humpf, yes, you're right about the version.

Sorry I fixed the page in the wrong branch. This is fixed and the page is now up-to-date.

Thank you for the feedback ;-)
