Upgrade Notes

3.4.*

The 3.4* saw a change in the Datadog Agent packaging. Previously the agent was shipped as two or three packages, depending on your operating system. On older operating systems (e.g Centos 5, Debian Lenny), we installed datadog-agent-base and datadog-agent-lib. On newer operating systems (e.g. Ubuntu Lucid, Centos 6) we installed datadog-agent, datadog-agent-base and datadog-agent-lib.

As of 3.4.*, you should only have to install one Datadog package per machine. On older os's install datadog-agent-base, on newer OS's install datadog-agent.

This split caused some upgrading issues for some users. This section notes those cases are provides fixes. In particular:

Debian
