I see. Thank you for your feedback on this.

Hi @MarsSeed

The official (extra-repo) package builds the binary from source, whereas this package takes the binary from the release page https://github.com/prometheus/alertmanager/releases

On one hand not all feel comfortable taking pre-built binaries, because they may contain malicious code. On the other hand building the binary from scratch (over and over) on a small device like a raspberry pi can be cumbersome.

So, taking into account, that currently maintaining is just increasing the relase number once in a while I will keep this package for an additional while :)

Is this package still worth the maintenence effort?

Builds for this exist in Arch extra repo and in ArchLinuxARM repos.

Provided service file is missing ExecReload=/bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID as it is supported by upstream (https://prometheus.io/docs/alerting/configuration/ and search for SIGHUP keyword). prometheus and blackbox_exporter packages have this line in their corresponding .service files.

First of all, congrats for your work is very useful.

Could you add the amtool bin to the PKGBUILD?

# Install Amtool Binary
install -D -m0755 amtool \
    "${pkgdir}/usr/bin/amtool"

Thanks.

The line

install -D -m0755 "${srcdir}/alertmanager.service" \
"${pkgdir}/usr/lib/systemd/system/alertmanager.service"

should be

install -D -m0644 "${srcdir}/alertmanager.service" \
"${pkgdir}/usr/lib/systemd/system/alertmanager.service"

@viq - thanks, it's been fixed

For a few versions now double dashes need to be used for options. Current -config.file causes error: alertmanager: error: unknown short flag '-c', try --help
