This warning occurs because the updated `netplan.io` package introduced
or modified the `/run/systemd/system/netplan-ovs-cleanup.service` file,
which is marked as "world-inaccessible" (e.g., file permissions of
`000`). While the permission settings aim to limit access, systemd's
design ensures configuration data is accessible through its APIs
regardless of file permissions, leading to this informational warning.

### Why did it start after the update?
The change in the `netplan.io` package likely modified the permissions of this 
service file during its update process. The warning reflects systemd's 
observation that marking the file "world-inaccessible" has no effect because 
systemd's APIs can still access the configuration.

### Is this an issue?
No, this is not a critical issue. The warning is informational, indicating that 
the permission setting has no functional impact. It does not affect the 
system's operation or the functionality of netplan or systemd.

### How to address it:
If you want to suppress the warning, you can modify the file permissions of 
`/run/systemd/system/netplan-ovs-cleanup.service` to make it "world-readable" 
(e.g., `chmod 644`):

1. Check the current permissions of the file:
   ```bash
   ls -l /run/systemd/system/netplan-ovs-cleanup.service
   ```

2. Adjust the permissions:
   ```bash
   chmod 644 /run/systemd/system/netplan-ovs-cleanup.service
   ```

3. Reload the systemd daemon:
   ```bash
   sudo systemctl daemon-reload
   ```

This will stop the warning from appearing in the logs.

### Should it be fixed upstream?
Yes, the maintainers of the `netplan.io` package should ensure that service 
files conform to standard practices. You can report this behavior to the Ubuntu 
bug tracker or upstream developers of `netplan.io` to address it in future 
updates.
