zabbix >= 7.4.1-2 may requires manual intervention
Starting with 7.4.1-2
, the following Zabbix system user accounts (previously shipped by their related packages) will no longer be used. Instead, all Zabbix components will now rely on a shared zabbix
user account (as originally intended by upstream and done by other distributions):
- zabbix-server
- zabbix-proxy
- zabbix-agent (also used by the
zabbix-agent2
package) - zabbix-web-service
This shared zabbix
user account is provided by the newly introduced zabbix-common
split package, which is now a dependency for all relevant zabbix-*
packages. The switch to the new user account is handled automatically for the corresponding main configuration files and systemd
service units. However, manual intervention may be required if you created custom files or configurations referencing to and / or being owned by the above deprecated users accounts, for example:
PSK
files used for encrypted communication- Custom scripts for metrics collections or report generations
sudoers
rules for metrics requiring elevated privileges to be collected- ...
Those should therefore be updated to refer to and / or be owned by the new zabbix
user account, otherwise some services or user parameters may fail to work properly, or not at all. Once migrated, you may remove the obsolete user accounts from your system.

Introducing pkgctl license
In Arch Linux, as part of RFC40, we have recently decided to license all Arch Linux package sources as 0BSD. Our package sources didn't have any license previously. RFC40 only specified that we do want to license our package sources but it didn't specify how to ensure this. As such, in RFC52 we decided we want to use REUSE to achieve that. NOTE: It might be a bit confusing that our PKGBUILD files also have a license
field. However, this field specifies the upstream license, i.e. the license of the software that we package. It does not specify …
