Agree sudo should be a prerequisite. i know! we will add a line to the instructions: sudo apt install sudo oh, wait... ;) in the case of the debian (or redhat or suse) installers, it is not as easy as just add 'sudo' to the weewx package dependency, since you not only have to install sudo, but also make the appropriate non-root user a sudoer. we end up with yet another fork in the installation instructions. the forks for systemd/sysv/launchd and pre-requisites already complicate things. but perhaps we can just add a note, with reference to wiki page with complete details about what sudo is and how to configure sudoers. m -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-development" group.
