No worries - we should start thinking about some automated testing for
this agent.  The model we used for the Nvidia PMDA with a mock version
of the library giving fixed results could give us basic sanity testing
here too I guess?  Install/Remove scripts, pmns validity - even simple
valgrind-based memchecks can be done that way too, if especially keen.

cheers.
