unable to get collectd-types to work

[jimdigriz]

If I try to use collectd-types, I get the following:

(wheezy)root@extinctvm:~# bucky --collectd-types=/opt/telemetry/statsbox/types.db
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/bucky", line 9, in <module>

    option.process(opt, value, values, self)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/optparse.py", line 788, in process
    self.action, self.dest, opt, value, values, parser)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/optparse.py", line 800, in take_action
    values.ensure_value(dest, []).append(value)
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'ensure_value'

The workaround I am using is to symlink /usr/local/share/collectd/types.db to /opt/telemetry/statsbox/types.db

No idea how to fix this.

This occurs for both the 'pip install' version and the version from git.

This is a bug in bucky, thanks for reporting it.

I have committed a fix for this in the git version, could you please try and see if this fixes your issue ?

Looks good to me "ship it!"
