Chandana,

As of the commit below, the _proc_ pmda became default installed on Linux.

        commit 7d28289b2cd74e72f9052a34af2ec7695f1fccd0

            Reinstate Linux pmdaproc as a default-installed PMDA

The _process_ pmda has not been built/packaged for some time, as this comment 
in the source explains ...
    
        # This PMDA is only valid on platforms with a procfs
        # It is also superceded by the cgroup functionality on Linux
        # thus has not been built for some time, for reference only.
