Malformed metrics generated on windows

[DerEwige]

When enabling promethus metrics several of the metrics are malformed on windows and can not be parsed by prometheus.

error while linting: text format parsing error in line 33: invalid escape sequence '\P'

You do not properly escape \ in file paths comming from windows

Unfortunately we cannot do much here, we are not the ones generating those metrics.
You should open an issue https://github.com/kamon-io/Kamon, the library we use for metrics.

Just found this old issue, from march last year =(

Damn, they're not very good at fixing issues on their repositories...

As a workaround I can just remove kamon-system-metrics_2.13-2.4.6.jar from my lib folder.
So it won't get loaded. This way I lose all system metrics, but the rest works
