Tom,

Upgrade from 4.0.0b14 to 4.0.0b16 on a Raspberry PI model 3B+ with Rasbian stretch and Python 3.

Note: In Raspbian buster I could not compile the rtlsdr part of tfrec without errors.

Before I forget, the critical error for not having a Rain field in the database still exists in this version.

====

Mar 15 10:14:15 pi31 tfrc[3322] CRITICAL __main__: Database OperationalError exception: (1054, "Unknown column 'rain' in 'field list'")

Mar 15 10:14:15 pi31 tfrc[3322] CRITICAL __main__: **** Waiting 2 minutes then retrying...

I added a try/except in wxservices.py to catch this.

I noticed a LOT more *.pyc files: 565 to be precise, where it used to be about 70.

I like the changed behaviour of the 400.b16 install. It won't update the weewx.conf file silently, but let you check the answers.

The units parameter had no default (it was metric), so I had to type metric here.

Below the configuration of weewx_mben and weewx_tfrc respectively.
