Comment 3 for bug 1979313

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and trying to make Ubuntu better.

This seems to be a real issue, in the kubernetes documentation they tell users to set this variable to true:

https://kubernetes.io/docs/setup/production-environment/container-runtimes/#containerd-systemd

We are planning to update containerd to the latest upstream version which will fix this issue as you mentioned. While this does not happen here users can find a simple workaround for that.
