The scripts are a POC which became production years and years ago. Most of the work is done by a basic awk script which goes through the data logs and counts the number of times a particular release shows up once per ip address. Every release the awk and gnuplot scripts need to be tweaked to deal with the slightly different release names which show up. In 2019 or so, a newer tool was built which does a better job of counting usages via the countme tooling. In 2022, I ran out of time to work on Fedora Infrastructure so I tried to 'futureproof' the data by having it read to count releases for a while. At the time I thought graphs would be made from the data at https://data-analysis.fedoraproject.org/csv-reports/countme/ and my older gnuplot stuff would go away. Like most things in systems administration, unless there is a dedicated person actually doing the work, it will get put on the back burner to the daily crisis. -- Stephen Smoogen, Red Hat Automotive Let us be kind to one another, for most of us are fighting a hard battle. -- Ian MacClaren
