[Bug 2028124] [NEW] apt dist-upgrade does not restart package qemu-guest-agent

[Jan Kratochvíl]

Public bug reported:

When my system Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS performs apt dist-upgrade (manually or from unattended upgrades) and there is an upadte on package qemu-guest-agent, the agent gets stopped, updated, but is not started.
I observed this behaviour on two machines with same result.

After I run the apt I see this in syslog, no errors:
Jul 19 07:04:02 micro systemd[1]: Stopping QEMU Guest Agent...
Jul 19 07:04:02 micro systemd[1]: qemu-guest-agent.service: Deactivated successfully.
Jul 19 07:04:02 micro systemd[1]: Stopped QEMU Guest Agent.
Jul 19 07:04:02 micro systemd[1]: qemu-guest-agent.service: Consumed 31min 49.962s CPU time.
