There was a bug in the command line arguments of the special agent for querying IPMI sensors. The valid choices for the privilege level were "user", "operator", "admin". These choices are valid for FreeIPMI, but not for IPMItool, which accepts "callback", "user", "operator", "administrator". Now, the valid choices for the privilege level depend on the chosen tool, as described above.
Furthermore, the rule for configuring the special agent has been adjusted accordingly. Previously, the privilege level was configurable via free text input. Now, there is a dropdown menu with tool-dependent choices. Rules with now invalid choices have to be corrected manually. However, note that such rules anyway crashed the special agent (independently of this werk).
