Morning.

same on 5.0 in buster:

Updated the agent from an old 4.1 using:

curl https://repository.rudder.io/tools/rudder-setup | bash -s setup-agent 5.0 192.168.10.210

There was a few hickups but none related to this.

As you can see I needed to manually install the package to generate a valid inventory on most recent 5.x.
Seems the xml-tree-pp thing is not in the dependencies always.
