performing an update fails because it cannot restart the collectd service if hddtemp plugin is enabled.

from the log:

....
Feb 09 16:21:53 kukenan collectd[3778988]: plugin_load: Could not find plugin "hddtemp" in /usr/lib/collectd
....
Feb 09 16:21:53 kukenan collectd[3778988]: Error: Parsing the config file failed!
Feb 09 16:21:53 kukenan systemd[1]: collectd.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE

checking in the directory and apt-file, it seems /usr/lib/collectd/hddtemp.so is missing.

I expected that an update will not break a running system.
