Interesting. In the Debian packages it's part of the heartbeat
package, but after downloading almost all of the SLES10 RPMs I
discovered that it's in the heartbeat-devel package.

$ rpm -qpl heartbeat-devel-2.1.3-23.1.i586.rpm  | grep -i sanity
/usr/share/heartbeat/BasicSanityCheck
/usr/share/heartbeat/stonithdtest/STONITHDBasicSanityCheck


As a general question for the Linux-HA devs/package maintainers,
what are the general recommendations for when and how to update a
system when using the packages from:

http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/server:/ha-clustering/

Obviously you guys prefer us to run the latest code, but some of us
subscribe to the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" credo. i.e. if
it's working and is stable, leave it as is.  Thoughts?


Finally, a more specific question: I'm currently using this package
from Debian_Etch/i386 @ the above:

1031100 2008-05-17 02:57 heartbeat_2.1.3-18_i386.deb

Looking at the listing now, the 2.1.3-18 package has a modified date
of 18-Jul-2008. So I downloaded it again, and get this:

1031094 2008-07-18 21:37 heartbeat_2.1.3-18_i386.deb

Clearly the file has been modified (slightly), but the version
number remained the same. Is this a common occurrence? I extracted
the new .deb but the changelog and changelog.Debian haven't changed.
