Ubuntu 24.04 Support

[danielstojkovski]

Hello, I am using the install instructions from here: https://app.scalyr.com/help/install-agent-linux?teamToken=zKjoHZMakitVemhyJ1xvXQ-- inside a docker image. When I use ubuntu:24.04, I get the following:

---

Adding the scalyr agent repository. Update scalyr repository. Installing scalyr-agent-2 package Install failed while executing "apt-get -y install scalyr-agent-2". Execute "apt-get -y install scalyr-agent-2" to see error.

I tried building the same docker image with ubuntu:22.04 base and it worked fine. However when I used the image on an ubuntu:24.04 based device I encountered a journal file incompatibility, and I couldn't see logs in scalyr- this is a second order issue, I am sure when I can install scalyr on an ubuntu:24.04 base image everything will be fine :)

FYI, running journalctl inside the container gives me:

@danielstojkovski We are working on adding support for Ubuntu 24.04 for scalyr-agent

Meanwhile could you, please, try AIO package?

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get remove scalyr-agent-2
sudo apt-get install scalyr-agent-2-aio

This package contains all necessary libraries and packages as bundle.
