Ubuntu 22.04.

I'm guessing the few dozens of plugins are probably messed up in a way or another after each updates.

Apparently, there's no unified QA testing among community supported ecosystem with 20 different authors.

In packer, at least, you can pin plug-in versions. I’ve never had the issue you describe - I suspect precisely because I keep my plugin count lean and pin each dependency so it’s always deterministic.
