Description
Bug description
https://ubuntu.com/blog/18-04-end-of-standard-support
Ubuntu 18.04 LTS will remain fully supported until April 2028 with an Ubuntu Pro subscription.
Expected behavior
Netdata should support with native packages, the major enterprise distributions of Linux, such as:
- Redhat Enterprise Linux
- Centos
- Ubuntu
- Suse
For these distributions, any version officially supported by them, should also be supported by Netdata, with native packages.
Failure to support these Linux versions, means that Netdata will be limited to target non-enterprises, or enterprise teams with recently installed infra.
Steps to reproduce
Ubuntu 18.04 is still supported by Ubuntu, but is not supported by Netdata.
Installation method
