Description unixops 2019-10-29 15:50:47 UTC
Description of problem:

The netdata rpm spec seems to be based on a old version which is quite different than the upstream one here https://raw.githubusercontent.com/netdata/netdata/master/netdata.spec.in .

Upstream version 1.18.1 now uses dbengine as the default memory mode, a feature which is not enabled at all in the epel package.  Could this rpm spec be updated to better reflect the default functionality of the upstream packages?

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

1.18.1

How reproducible:

install package.  Edit /etc/netdata/netdata.conf and add the `memory mode = dbengine` line under `[global]`

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install package.
2. Edit /etc/netdata/netdata.conf and add the `memory mode = dbengine` line under `[global]`
3. restart netdata service

Actual results:

Logs show `netdata FATAL : MAIN :RRD_MEMORY_MODE_DBENGINE is not supported in this platform. # : No such file or directory`

Expected results:

netdata is enabled with dbengine backend.

Additional info:

Tested using 1.18.1 currently in epel-testing

Comment 1 Didier Fabert (tartare) 2019-10-29 18:15:26 UTC
dbengine cannot be enabled in epel8 for now because of missing dependencies. Some needed packages are not yet available: libuv-devel and Judy-devel.

I'm waiting (a little) before apply this modifications to all branches.

If you cannot wait, I built it with dbengine enabled in my copr: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/tartare/netdata/build/1081316/ for all fedora releases and epel6 and 7 (where I need to add an exception for epel8, which is not wanted for stable packages).

Comment 2 unixops 2019-10-29 19:28:12 UTC
Ah makes sense, thanks for the explanation.  You're right there are a bunch of -devel packages missing among others after a quick glance.  I will make use of the copr repo for now.
