--- Comment #6 from David O'Rourke <dor.bsd@xm0.uk> ---
After considering this for a while, and speaking with some other FreeBSD
porters, the best thing is probably to continue with the `prometheus2` pack=
age.

However, it should not conflict with the `prometheus` package, as both are
required to run together for the migration period if a user wishes to take =
that
path.

This means the binaries become `prometheus2` and `promtool2`, the config
becomes `prometheus2.yml`, the pidfile becomes `prometheus2.pid`, the rc.co=
nf
variables receive similar treatment, etc.

In this case, a few words in the `pkg-message` linking to the migration gui=
de
on the Prometheus site, should suffice. People can then work out what they =
need
to do to fix up their old config to work with Prometheus 2 while not losing
access to their old data immediately. The most complicated part is likely t=
o be
alerting and recording rules, but `promtool` can help with that and
instructions for this are in the migration guide too.

Viewing the `prometheus2.shar` that was submitted (which looks good), this
should just be a few minor changes.
