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.
