On Debian/Ubuntu Linux that use the dpkg/apt package manager there is a possibility that a package is not in a fully installed state. It can be removed, leaving its configuration files, or the install could have failed. Check rigorously that the package is fully installed without error before producing the command-line. Also, correct the install command to use apt-get instead of apt since that command-line is guaranteed to be stable.

This works, but is there something we could look for which is more indicative of an error than \nii? 🤔 If not, LGTM

If the dpkg -l command fails then that is treated as an indication that the package isn't installed, which throws an error caught below. It's just that this output can be that the package is partially installed, which requires this output check here. I don't think that there's much else we can do.
