Hi,

it's unfortunately a (known) package issue, see https://redmine.postgresql.org/issues/7478.

@devrimgunduz is there anything I can do to help?

Hi @rjuju ,

Apologies for the delay.

So, I can now work on this, but need help about naming.

Currently we have 3 packages:

• powa_collector (separate package)
• powa-web
• powa (the archivist)

...and yes, there is a packaging issue.

We will keep the first two, but do you want me to rename powa to powa-archivist, or keep it as it?

Thanks!

Regards, Devrim

Hi @devrimgunduz

no worries, and thanks for your hard work!

I think that on the apt side there's a powa-archivist package, so having the same name for rpm could be nice but maybe it could lead to some headache when transitioning. If yes could the powa package become a metapackage that has dependencies on the main extensions, like powa-archivist, pg_qualstats, pg_stat_kcache and pg_track_settings? I wouldn't put powa-web or powa-collector with it as the remote mode is more useful, so you will probably install those on one or two different servers.

@rjuju ack, thanks! Starting now. I'm not that worried about transition, as the packaging is already broken and we'll keep powa package.

[rjuju]

Ah I see, then I agree the transition shouldn't be an issue :) Thanks a lot!

[devrimgunduz]

Should be fixed in the latest release set.

There are now 4 packages (XY stands for PostgreSQL major version):

powa_XY : Meta package (pulls powa_archivist_XY, pg_qualstats_XY, pg_stat_kcache_XY and hypopg_XY (

powa-collector:

powa-archivist_XY

powa-web

Thanks a lot @devrimgunduz !

For the record, I see that you added the last powa-archivist releases (4.2.0 and 4.2.1) but powa-web hasn't been bumped and is still showing 4.1.4. Is it an oversight or is there anything missing on my side?
