Hi all, I just installed Observium community edition manually because the port is orphaned and grossly outdated. It also suffers from a = fundamental problem - the former maintainer decided to decouple the port version = from the Observium version and use the "latest.tar.gz" download link provided by the project. Of course that breaks every time a new community edition is published. I checked with the Observium folks on their Discord - they do provide versioned stable download links. So that can be considered solved. The real question I am asking is: is it ok to install everything into /usr/local/observium similar to Apache Solr, OpenJDK etc.? Alternatively one could "rip it apart" and try to separate e.g. the web = frontend files into /usr/local/www/observium, the executables into = /usr/local/libexec, etc. I would very much prefer the former (everything in one directory). If = that is still acceptable I can promise continued maintenance and timely updates in = return ;-) Comments? Thanks and kind regards, Patrick --=20 punkt.de GmbH Patrick M.
