i think i was mistaken about dnf not creating the weewx user. i thought we
had implemented useradd so that the HOME for a new weewx user is
/var/lib/weewx, but apparently we did that for debian, but not for
redhat/suse. i will fix that. however, that is not relevant to your
problem.

weewx 4.10 then following the instructions to install v5 should work? I
believe I can save the database and re-add it after installing.

also has home directory '/home/weewx', which tell

I neglected that detail, I did delete the directory /var/lib/weewx and
the database therein. I did not change the directory /etc/weewx and I
noticed that when I ran dnf install weewx it updated the ownership and
group of that directory and f

persisted.
