@necrevistonnezr said in collectd is unable to start:

... but will this change persist?

yes, that's the correct fix. I had this line in the ubuntu 20 upgrade guide, but it's missing in the ubuntu 22 guide. I have added it now.

@zjuhasz1 Right, this is also fixed. The packages were installed because we use apt without --no-install-recommends. You can remove those gnome packages by hand for now if it bothers you but it doesn't run any daemons, so it's mostly harmless.

This is fixed in the next release. Thanks for reporting!
