Cloudron installs Gnome desktop environment?

[dkdkdkk]

Dear all,

I have a proxmox host here and installed a fresh ubuntu 20.04 (server edition) as a VM. All went well, took the normal path with the installation from Cloudron. I restart the machine and I boot into a pretty empty Gnome desktop environment....

Is this new in 6.0.1? Seems like a weird thing to me on a server installation.

@dkdkdkk Not intentionally. It's mostly likely because collectd pulls in a lot of gnome packages But it's fine, it won't trouble the cloudron setup.

I was mistaken, it doesn't install it (not collectd anyway). This is the dep graph of collectd.
