Nagios web configuration was easy and all the plugins worked fine. Unfortunately, we are interested in debian packages, because we are trying to have the most standard installation procedure on Debian (we have to apply the procedure on various Debian systems). And here my problems started!

I can't speak for the quality of the packages. But Debian has a tendency
to be rather conservative in their choises and not upgrade that often.

If you compiled from source with version 3 and reverted back to nagios 2
then you may have run into a heap of problems. If you manage to left
some of the manual compiled stuff in an combined it with software from
the packages you are in way over your head I fear.

It seems manual software is not a no-go area. Otherwise you would not
have started there.

I suggest you go back to the manual compiled stuff and remove the debian
packages in full. Or remove everything and start from scratch with just
the packages.
