Found this bug while discussing the future use of icinga instead of nagios for
monitoring and just wanted to add a comment on idoutils.

Idoutils are provided for mysql, postgresql and oracle. If it is build with
--enable-idoutils like in the spec it is build for use with mysql. If
--with-pgsql is also added it is build for postgresql. --with-oracle would
build for oracle but needs ocilib or oracle instant client, both not use able
for build because of licensing. 
See: http://docs.icinga.org/1.3.0/en/quickstart-idoutils.html

I can see the difficulties in building both mysql and postgresql support, but I
think it would be good to do so and split idoutils in three packages:
- idoutils providing the common files
- idoutils-mysql providing the files for mysql
- idoutils-postgresql providing the files for postgresql
and delete the oracle specific files.

Also I hope it could provided for epel!
