2023-01-16 11:49:05 Christian Ehrhardt  description collectd is missing in the 22.04/jammy repositories. collectd was available in the proposed repository at first, but has been removed on April 29. Why was it removed and when will collectd be available in 22.04? [ Impact ] * This was removed [2] in Jammy-proposed on 2023-02-24 due to being an rdep for liboping in bug 1960612 * That bug in liboping was resolved later and closed, but this being an reverse dependency, was not added back. * Due to that the collectd is in all releases prior and post this release, but missing in Jammy * We can take the latest version that is in pre-kinetic which is 5.12.0-10 and build it for Jammy to add it back to Jammy. [ Test Plan ] * Simplified the test could be described as "apt install collectd" which as of now fails in Jammy, but would work after this being completed. - to make this a bit more non-superficial one should check if the service works on install and if it can interact. After install run: systemc root@l:~# systemctl status collectd ● collectd.service - Statistics collection and monitoring daemon Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/collectd.service; enabled; preset: enabled) Active: active (running) since Mon 2023-01-16 11:30:35 UTC; 12s ago - then install the utils and make sure it is healthy $ apt install collectd-utils rrdtool The rrd tool is rather complex and auto-enabled. Have a look at what it collects for CPU0 ... $ rrdtool info /var/lib/collectd/rrd/*/cpu-1/cpu-interrupt.rrd You can look at other data points, but that should already list you some values that collectd provided. * We have many users here that could also give it a shot to test it if they want. So far many use builds from other Ubuntu releases which is a band-aid at best. [ Where problems could occur ] * There is not much "regression-risk" as it just doesn't exists in jammy before accepting this. I've double checked reverse dependencies that might change behavior, but there are no explicit as they would have been removed as well back then. [ Other Info ] * I have prepared a test build for jammy [1] in a PPA. * I think this is really fixing a regression for users of anything that depends on it (see all the pings on this bug) as well upgrade perspective of users that had it e.g. on Focal - it should be better to add it back. I see no conflict of this in regard to the SRU policy, so let us get this started. If rejecting int on SRU review for policy reasons please suggest an alternative way to pursue. * There are also a list of other packages with do not depend, but are meant to work with collectd. They will benefit from having it back in the archive. - golang-collectd-dev - Utilities for using collectd together with Golang - golang-github-kimor79-gollectd-dev - go parser for the collectd binary protocol - mtail - Extract monitoring data from logs for collection in a timeseries database - pgcluu - PostgreSQL performance monitoring and auditing tool - puppet-module-voxpupuli-collectd - Puppet module for collectd - kcollectd - simple collectd graphing front-end for KDE [1]: https://launchpad.net/~paelzer/+archive/ubuntu/jammy-get-collectd-back/+packages [2]: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/collectd/+publishinghistory --- original report --- collectd is missing in the 22.04/jammy repositories. collectd was available in the proposed repository at first, but has been removed on April 29. Why was it removed and when will collectd be available in 22.04?
