Split plugins to individual packages for DEB/RPM packaging. (#13927)
* Update and normalize plugin package descriptions.
This ensures they have accurate and cnocise descriptions of what they
do, and that the descriptions are the same for both the RPM and DEB
packages.
* Split NFACCT plugin to it’s own package.
Most users do not actually use it, so make life easier for them by
reducing our dependency footprint and cutting down on how much they need
to download.
* Split charts.d.plugin to it’s own package.
* Split eBPF plugin and code to their own packages.
The code is in a separate package to simplify handling updates for it
separately from the main agent code in the future.
The eBPF plugin will still be installed by default in most cases when
installing the Netdata Agent
* Split python.d plugin to it’s own package.
The python.d plugin will still be installed by default in most cases
when installing the Netdata Agent
* Split go.d plugin to it’s own package.
The go.d plugin will still be installed by default in most cases when
installing the Netdata Agent
* Split apps.plugin to it’s own package
The apps plugin will still be installed by default in most cases when
installing the Netdata Agent
* Properly split out postinst scripts for DEB packages.
We should be modifying permissions and filecaps for plugins in the
specific packages that install those plugins.
* Clean up main files section in RPM spec file.
This should get rid of the duplicate files warnings, as well as probably
producing a more technically correct RPM.
* Properly format DEB package descriptions.
They should be folded at 76 characters.
* Fix dependencies for split RPM plugin packages.
* Fix most duplicate file warnings for RPM builds.
* Split slabinfo plugin to it’s own package.
* Clean up RPM conditional build.
All platforms we build RPMs for have both netns and systemd support, so
quit supporting platforms that don’t in our spec file.
* Include loopsleepms.sh.inc in RPM package.
* Fix packaging of nfacct plugin.
* Skip building NFACCT plugin on RHEL clones.
They lack the required dependencies.
* Split perf.plugin to it’s own package.
Also, start using CAP_PERFMON for it in RPM packages when available.
* Fix typo in DEB postinstall scripts.
* Fix issues with ebpf bundling scripts.
They don’t need to preserve permissions, and choosing not to do so makes
them work more reliably in a number of cases.
* Improve dependency handling of secondary plugins.
* Fix dependency handling.
* Match ebpf code files more specifically in RPM spec file.
* Fix branding and dependencies for RPM packages.
- Change the eBPF plugin legacy code package name and description to
reflect what it actually is.
- Properly have the new plugin packages conflict with the older Netdata
packages. This is needed for updates to work cleanly.
- Only require the eBPF legacy code on older systems that need it.
* Fix branding and dependencies for DEB packages.
- Change the eBPF plugin legacy code package name and description to
reflect what it actually is.
- Properly have the new plugin packages conflict with the older Netdata
packages. This is needed for updates to work cleanly.
* Update docs for non-default plugins.
* Have docs link back to package document.
* Address review feedback.
* Explicitly suggest plugins we are not including by default.
This does not pull them in by default, but does make it easier for users
to discover them.
* Explicitly pull in default plugins on CentOS 7.
* Fix broken merge of netdata spec file.
* Resolve typo in kickstart script.
* Explicitly disable FreeIPMI and NFACCT in RPMs if they are not available.
* Fix RPM changelog.
* Fix conditional plugin handling.
* Fix disabling FreeIPMI on Amazon Linux.
* Split new debugfs plugin to separate package.
* Install debugfs plugin by default.
