This presents a problem as dots in metric name have special meaning in grapihte (they are used as separators).\r\nAs a result, I have a broken metric tree in graphite after upgrading to 5.5.\r\n\r\nWorks well in collectd:\r\n```\r\n# collectdctl -s /var/run/collectd.sock putval host/plugin-pl:inst/gauge N:1\r\n# collectdctl -s /var/run/collectd.sock listval | grep host\r\nreceive: <-- 1435674171.443 host/plugin-pl:inst/gauge\r\nhost/plugin-pl:inst/gauge\r\n#\r\n```\r\n\r\nBroken in graphite:\r\n```\r\nhost.plugin-pl.inst.gauge\r\n```"}}
