I originally installed Proxmox on top of Debian Buster like this: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Install_Proxmox_VE_on_Debian_Buster
Today, while running apt update && apt dist-upgrade, I saw that it installed multiple zfs utilities automatically, although I don't use it at all.

Also, the services associated with those packages failed to start.

Should I apt remove these packages or let them stay there?
 
they get pulled in because we recently started recommending "zfs-zed" in our storage layer/package. the set of packages we depend on will change from time to time, this is normal and nothing to worry about ;)

Aha okay. Thanks.
