Using the solution mentioned here netdata/netdata#233 (comment) no longer works
Another bad user experience caused by this bug is that when you've installed a packaged version of netdata it's not covered by the documentation (since it's impossible to cover all distros etc) and it's not advisable to work around package management frameworks in general

Please make this optional and preferably hide the icon when disabled
Tested operating system (not relevant): FreeBSD 13
Netdata version: 1.31.0

@diizzyy hey, can you explain (or reword) what do you want us to make optional?
Hi,
Disable "upstream" version check and hide the icon for it?
@diizzyy thx for raising this. Your concern is valid and we will consider how to respond to this issue. For now we advise you to use kickstart or packages provided by Netdata rather than installing packages provided by the package maintainers as we cannot guarantee that everything required is included Cc @cpipilas
