[solved] zabbix outdated

[denk]

Arch Linux has packaged the new upstream version 7.4.1 of zabbix. According to [url]https://archlinux.org/news/zabbix-741-2-may-requires-manual-intervention/[/url] they introduced also changes to their packaging structure. However, these changes and the new upstream version are not in Arch Linux ARM. Do they have to be synced manually due to those packaging changes? Or is there any other reason, why zabbix is not in sync with Arch Linux?

Fixed with 7.4.1-4! Thank you!

FYI the new package creates a new 'zabbix' users, so depending on how you set up your server, there may be issues (which I am trying t resolve )

A Single Zabbix User for All Components

Previously, Zabbix on Arch Linux used several specific system user accounts for its different parts. For example, there were separate accounts for the zabbix-server, zabbix-proxy, zabbix-agent, and even zabbix-web-service.

But, things are now getting simpler!

All these different Zabbix components will begin using one shared user account, simply named zabbix.

This new shared user comes bundled within a new package, the zabbix-common split package, which is now a necessary part of all relevant Zabbix packages.
