How to disable filesystem expansion on Ubuntu for desktops?

au flag

I flashed Ubuntu Desktop 22.04.1 LTS to disk and removed x-systemd.growfs from /etc/fstab before booting Pi.

/etc/init.d/resizefs_once doesn’t exist on Ubuntu Desktop 22.04.1 LTS image.

Filesystem is still expanded somehow.

How can I disable that?

Figured it out… touch /etc/growroot-disabled fixes unexpected filesystem expansion.

See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cloud-init/+bug/1947311.

Likely a bug with Ubuntu for desktops.

There's plenty of questions in AskUbuntu that turn out to be bugs, some even fixed. Links to the bug in the real bug tracker are good. Better is a report of what version it is fixed in so people know they need to update (when that's possible).
I sit in a Tesla and translated this thread with Ai:

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
