Mr. Keffer:
Thanks for the insider's view and experience. Not many of us get to rub
shoulders even in forums, with people who were central to doing things
that literally affected people all around the world. The financial cost

Vince,
Thanks, that does make sense. I guess I was just thinking there were
areas of the code that wouldn't be used if not called, rather than
linking and work arounds.

They do. Just not forever, and just not in all cases.
There's a point where you would have a rats nest of backward compatibili

Mr. Keffer brings up a point that I've been interested in as a student
(practically from the beginning) of computer science starting back in
the 1950s and 60s following what was a mathematical branch, but then
into system and compilers.

The original post was mine. I found that removing six.py allowed the
system to start, as you did. Everything was working fine EXCEPT the graphs
were not being updated and I was getting the errors you reported.. In my

See https://www.weewx.com/docs.html and use the 5.0 link there for
instructions, but there are no RHish packages available yet.
It might be easier to just grab the v5 genplot.py and drop it into place
and see if you get further...

This is caused by upgrading to Pillow 10, which has removed the attribute
"textsize". There have been several email threads about this. For example,

You can either downgrade Pillow to 9.x, or cherry pick the fix as described

I have removed six.py and weewx starts and generates usable web pages.
However a new error now appears every minute, whenever the image
