Hello all,
With the release of the macOS 11.0 “Big Sur” I would anticipate some major changes under the hood as far as the “darwin” open source/unix components.
Has anyone tried weewx on Big Sur? I am thinking about upgrading in the next couple days. I’ll update here when I do with my experience.
Cheers
Chris

I wouldn't expect any issues as long as you meet the python prerequisites as always...

I have upgraded and everything seems to work basically except for the standard skin graphs which have lost all text.
I will go through the prerequisites today and see if there are any updates to tools or python packages needed to get them functional again.
Cheers,
Chris

Hello all,
I can report that there was only one issue that cropped up in the upgrade from macOS 10.15 to 11.0:
A font file was removed. The previous font that I had referenced in my Standard/skin.conf file was at:
/System/Library/Fonts/SFCompactText.ttf
There is now no such font in that location so it was generating extremely tiny font (I did not notice it at first) in its place.
I updated the path to point to:
/System/Library/Fonts/SFCompact.ttf
The text is now generating fine. Though I don't really like the font much :) So I'll choose a different one.
Other than that, I have detected no other problems when upgrading to macOS 11.0. If I find anything else, I'll return to this thread.
Cheers
Chris

PS.
I settled on /System/Library/Fonts/SFNSMono.ttf
for a suitable font.
You can see the resulting graphs here:

Nice. Looks like you might have quite the blow on Thursday.
