I read the upgrade guide and the change log. I have a very stable installation running on 4.10.2. All the directory and weewx user changes look a bit scary to me because I have site specific python scripts in weewx/user directory that read and format Scripps buoy RSS feeds.
Any guess how hard of time I'll have for the upgrade now that weewx has shown up in apt upgrade list?
