[weewx-user] Re: Upgrading from 3.8.0 prior to going to xubuntu 20.04

2020-06-20 Thread Iain Simpson

I'm having to double (or triple)  check but I think it's just the 'conky 
skin and the .conf file that might need to be reconstituted.
As long as I can keep the database running.

It looks that the best way to update is via the .deb file
and do my homework first.

Thanks for comments.

[weewx-user] Upgrading from 3.8.0 prior to going to xubuntu 20.04

2020-06-19 Thread Iain Simpson
In preparation to a move to latest xubuntu (20.04.1) from 18.04 I am 
looking to upgrade to the latest version of weewx.

I am still running 3.8.0 and have made some additions (to interface with 
Conky).
Reading the upgrade documentation I was going to go via the 'setup.py' 
route.
Checking my current setup I am running from
/usr/share/weewx
/etc/weewx
/var/lib/weekx (sqlite)

The upgrade documentation says to change setup.cfg to 'previous 
installation' this presumably will be '/usr/share/weewx'

I am wondering whether this is the wisest route or whether to 
a. use the '.deb' file and rebuild my customisation.
b. stick with Python 2

It's some years since I did the original weewx installation and a lot has 
been forgotten.

Can anyone advise please.
