I didn't phrase that very well. Perhaps it would be better to say that the weewx version of setup.py was intended for installation in /home/weewx.

However, our assumption, good or bad, was that users would use apt-get (or equivalent) if that's what they wanted. -tk On Sat, Mar 14, 2020 at 7:47 PM Xant <[email protected]> wrote: > > Good on b16!
