Package repos install service with fluent-bit.conf path

[Saya47]

When we use package repos to install Fluent-bit, the installed service uses path fluent-bit.conf (classic config) by default, since we are on v2 when can we expect for .yaml path to be used instead by default? Because I have to change the path every time I update Fluent-bit!

echo this, I am moving to 3.x and the container still uses the .conf.

/fluent-bit/bin/fluent-bit -c /fluent-bit/etc/fluent-bit.conf

Hello, this issue is close because of staled, but a new install of Fluent-Bit v4.0.3 on Ubuntu 24.04 still uses .conf configuration as default (in the /etc/fluent-bit/, referenced in the systemd unit).

The conf format will be deprecated at the end of the year according the documentation, do you plan to change this behavior?

Edit: The PR #9837 is open since the begin of the year. I'm going to check conversation over there.
