Did you read /usr/share/doc/collectd-core/README.Debian.plugins ?

I personally disagree with this suggestion, as they already aren't hard
dependencies, merely suggestions/recommendations.

If you need to setup stripped-down systems, it's in any case a good habit
to disable installation of suggestions/recommendations, regardless of
whether collectd is installed or not:

APT::Install-Recommends "0";
APT::Install-Suggests "0";

Just my 2c...
