Bug description:
  Systemd upstream switched the default cgroup hierarchy to unified with
  v243. This change is reverted by the Ubuntu systemd packages, but as
  unified is the way to go per upstream support should be added to all
  relevant Ubuntu packges (and snaps):

  https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/v243/NEWS#L56

          * systemd now defaults to the "unified" cgroup hierarchy setup during
            build-time, i.e. -Ddefault-hierarchy=unified is now the build-time
            default. Previously, -Ddefault-hierarchy=hybrid was the default. This
            change reflects the fact that cgroupsv2 support has matured
            substantially in both systemd and in the kernel, and is clearly the
            way forward. Downstream production distributions might want to
            continue to use -Ddefault-hierarchy=hybrid (or even =legacy) for
            their builds as unfortunately the popular container managers have not
            caught up with the kernel API changes.

  
  Systemd is rebuilt using the new default and is available from the following PPA for testing:
