write-graphite module: Invalid configuration option: LogSendErrors

[daks]

Hello,

I just upgraded this module from 2.1.0 to 3.2.0 and running it on Debian Wheezy. I use the graphite module with a configuration like

class { 'collectd::plugin::write_graphite':
    graphitehost    => 'xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx',
    graphiteport    => '2003',
    graphiteprefix  => 'servers.',
}

This configuration worked before and seems to still work but it raises an error when running collectd:

collectd[3910]: write_graphite plugin: Invalid configuration option: LogSendErrors.

I tried to set this option to true or false and I got the same error, only removing this option resolves it. Collectd version on Debian 7 is 5.1.0

please give us the output of :

collectd -h

as well as the complete block generated with the LogSendErrors option

[daks]
