published. Instead, it is published as `vector-<version>-1.armv7hl.rpm` to better follow RPM
guidelines. If you are using `yum` to install the RPM, this change should be transparent.

#### Default config location change {#default-config-location-change}

The default config location is now `/etc/vector/vector.yaml` rather than `/etc/vector/vector.toml`.
This is part of the migration to YAML as Vector's preferred configuration language (though TOML and
JSON will still be supported for the forseeable future). If you need Vector to load
`/etc/vector/vector.toml` you must now specify `--config /etc/vector/vector.toml` or
`VECTOR_CONFIG=/etc/vector/vector.toml`

See the associated [release highlight from v0.33.0](/highlights/2023-08-30-yaml-default-format) for
more details on the motivation for migrating from TOML to YAML as the default configuration
language.

### Deprecations

#### Deprecation of `requests_completed_total`, `request_duration_seconds`, and `requests_received_total` Internal Metrics {#deprecate-obsolete-http-metrics}
