Public bug reported: Hello,
Via apt, I installed ganglia-monitor on a machine running Ubuntu 22. ganglia-monitor contains a gmond service. Normally(?) install puts a config file for gmond in /etc. Details online https://github.com/ganglia/monitor-core/wiki/Ganglia-Quick-Start So far as I can tell, no default config files for gmond or gmetad are installed via this package. When I start up ganglia, I get an error message about no config file being present. Ganglia has been around forever, and I can't tell if it is under active development. https://github.com/ganglia/ In past ubuntu releases (20, 18?) a default config file was included as part of the apt install package.
