  • Add prominent note in OTLP feature docs with root cause:
  • package builds disable OpenTelemetry (ICINGA2_WITH_OPENTELEMETRY=OFF) due to older default Protobuf toolchain.
  • Add the same caveat to the OTLPMetricsWriter object type reference.
  • Add install-time note in Debian/Ubuntu installation section.
  • Add upgrade-path caveat in ElasticsearchWriter -> OTLPMetricsWriter migration section.
  • Include verification command and practical alternatives (build with newer Protobuf toolchain or use newer distro release).

Fixes #10823.

Sorry for this second change request, but please also mention the absence for Amazon Linux 2, as now updated in the original issue #10823. Thanks again!

CI is blocked until either #10832 is merged or it unblocks itself 🙃
