1. Fixed the apt hook logic
The original script used dpkg -V with backwards logic. The new version directly checks if nag patterns are present in the files using grep, which is much more reliable:
2. More robust pattern matching
Added multiple sed patterns to catch different variations of how the subscription check might be written:
data.status !== 'active'
data.status!=='active'
data.status != 'active'
data.status!='active'
3. Better testing and validation
The script now includes a test_current_fix() function that verifies whether nags are actually present and whether the fix is working.
4. Improved error handling
Better feedback about what's happening and whether the fix is working correctly.
