 Insert humble opinion:
 
 To truly validate this as a package installation, I would argue that not
 only does it need to pass in tinderbox, but it also would also need to be
 added as a dependency of another package to test its' packaging validation.
 I don't see that collectd is required by anything, though. I've seen too
 many packages not pass this test.
