Description: The checkout platform's local health agent stopped working after a package upgrade was interrupted. The checkout-agent binary may already be on disk, but its systemd service is not healthy.

Restore the package and service so the agent runs again and still comes back after a reboot. Do not wipe the package database under /var/lib/dpkg, and do not replace the service with a hand-written unit of your own.

Root (sudo) Access: True

Test: checkout-agent is install ok installed; checkout-agent.service is active and enabled; its unit under /lib/systemd/system/ is owned by the package.

The "Check My Solution" button runs the script /home/admin/agent/check.sh, which you can see and execute.

Time to Solve: 10 minutes.
