I followed a tutorial at unixmen on how to install monitorx in ubuntu
i installed the dependencies and downloaded the monitorix_2.5.0-izzy1_all.deb
deb package but when i try to install it i get this error

google transtaler (i have a dutch Ubuntu and so was the error message)

dpkg: error processing monitorix_2.5.0-izzy1_all.deb (- install):
  parsing file '/ var / lib / dpkg / tmp.ci / control' near line 14 package 'monitorix':
  blank line in the value of field 'Description'
Errors were encountered while processing:

I had the same issue, so I wrote the packager. His new deb file worked for me, but I also had to install dependencies:

Edit: For the deb file, please email Andreas Itzchak Rehberg, you will find his email address on this page -- http://www.monitorix.org/downloads.html

Installation

cd ./Downloads
sudo dpkg -i monitorix_2.5.0-izzy2_all.deb
