[Bug 1979313] Re: kubeadm doesn't work with containerd version of apt install

[Lucas Kanashiro]

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.

** Changed in: containerd (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Triaged

** Changed in: containerd (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided => Low

** Changed in: apt (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Invalid

Title:
  kubeadm doesn't work with containerd version of apt install

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in containerd package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Version of Ubuntu:
  Description:    Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
  Release:        22.04

  kubeadm:
    Installed: 1.24.2-00
    Candidate: 1.24.2-00

  Package that has the problem:
  containerd:
    Installed: 1.5.9-0ubuntu3
    Candidate: 1.5.9-0ubuntu3
    Version table:
   *** 1.5.9-0ubuntu3 500
          500 http://ro.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy/main amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  Problem:
  Kubeadm is not compatibile with this version of containerd that is installed by `apt install containerd`.
  If I use `kubeadm init` it will create a cluster which instead of staying alive will die after a couple of minutes.
  The problem is in the config file of containerd, which has the following parameter set to false: `SystemdCgroup = false`

  Solution:
  To solve this, the containerd config parameter SystemdCgroup needs to be set to true.
  It is set to true in the containerd v1.6.2, but by default, apt installs the version v1.5.9, which worked on Ubuntu 20.04 but does not work for Ubuntu 22.04.
