I filed some bug reports with issues that I think would make Gnocchi much easier for beginners to get started. > > Attempts to use it in other ways fail > > I don't agree.

I think that they should be in the same package if it's strongly recommended that the daemon in question only be started by systemd. It's only if running the daemon without systemd (as I tried to do and as is recommended by upstream documentation) that it makes sense to have them in separate packages. > > the upstream documentation is no good, > > and there isn't Debian specific documentation for it. > > Though there's puppet-module-gnocchi that you could use, and which I > package in Debian, if you're a puppet person. This definitively helps. > At least by just reading what it does. I'm not a puppet person. There are several systems doing similar things (puppet and ansible are the ones that seem most common). So if I use one then I'll end up missing out on the benefits (such as the example files you refer to) for the other ones. -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/
