Checkmk versions & editions

2.4.0b1 Not yet released	Checkmk Raw (CRE), Checkmk Enterprise (CEE), Checkmk Cloud (CCE), Checkmk MSP (CME)
2.3.0p19	Checkmk Raw (CRE), Checkmk Enterprise (CEE), Checkmk Cloud (CCE), Checkmk MSP (CME)

Since the update of monitoring-plugins to 2.4.0, check_ircd requires the perl module IO::Socket::IP. As we cannot guarantee that the required perl version is available under all distros supported by Checkmk, we decided to stop shipping the plugin.

In case you need this plugin, you can install it manually to the local hierarchy of your site.
