Rudder

These entries were added before the upgrade of the packages.

I found these entries also after the successfull installation of rudder-agent.

Ok, I should test a migration between 2.4.4 and 2.4.5 to confirm this bug. Thanks for reporting it

This change about && and \&\& remind me of an old bug but I can't find it.

I've tried to reproduce it without success:

root@node1:~# dpkg -l | grep rudder

Maybe I should try with older versions of Rudder 2.4

I suppose that since #3013 this ticket is fixed but not sure.
