Remove default-install of collectd #3490
Comments
/cc @syuu1228 |
@avikivity this is a breaking change for anyone who does use collectd. |
It is not a breaking change, we retain collectd support. It's just not default. When upgrading, they'll need an additional step of |
2.2 and 2.3 will still ship with collectd enabled by default/ |
Why can't we ship collectd the same way we do today, but default-disable it in systemd ? |
It's nicer to pull in fewer dependencies. In the past, EPEL's collectd pulled in qt and half a million xorg dependencies; this has since been correctd. Still, it's nicer not to pull in something you don't need. btw, since we no longer need a local collectd, perhaps we don't need anything. Someone who wants collectd can just configure it to point to their remote instance. It will mean an extra step for collectd users, but it will be worthwhile for them. |
Since bc7503f
scyllatop
no longer needs collectd. This allows us to drop collectd, which consumes a lot of CPU on large machines.We can move collectd support (including the dependency on
collectd
) to a sub-packagescylla-collectd
that is not installed by default, and change the default configuration to disable collectd.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
