Hi all, I have a weewx installation on an Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS box that was 
installed via apt using the weewx official repo. I upgraded from v4.x to 
5.0.0 and am no longer able to get the weewx process to start. When 
manually attempting to start weewxd from the command line (as root), I 
receive the following:

The weewx daemon is not installed at /usr/share/weewx/weewxd

Permissions for that file are as follows:

in /usr/share/weewx:
-rw-r--r--   1 root root 10425 Jan 14 11:38 weewxd.py

I see in the release notes that weewx is now intended to run under the 
weewx user and group. I do not see this group in my /etc/group file and it 
looks like all the weewx files are still owned by root:root. 

Did the installer miss something here converting to the new user/group 
configuration or should I be looking somewhere else to get weewx (and 
weectl, etc.) to run properly?

Thanks!

Patrick
