Hmm, that sounds like https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/commit/a3fad8f6e710 but that was fixed long ago in version 284 . Can you please give the output of dpkg -l | grep cockpit?

Ah yes, your cockpit-machines version is very old. Please also install the backports version (310). We don't test/support mixing backported cockpit base packages with old "extension" packages.

The 310 or any newer version than 265-1 for cockpit-machines is not available on apt. Should I follow instructions from cockpit-machines repository?

[martinpitt]

sudo apt install -t jammy-backports cockpit-machines cockpit-pcp (while you are at it..) should work.

Thank you, seems like this problem is solved. I have another one but will try to settle this up by myself.
