installed_app_ids judged installation on live containers alone. Watched on
archi-dev-box within the hour: lnd read as ABSENT, then as EXISTS again.
Containers on this node come and go — the boot reconciler logs
"previously-running app has no container after boot — recreating" for
bitcoin-knots and electrumx repeatedly — so a momentary gap looked exactly
like a removal, and the reaper would have taken a healthy companion's unit
with it. ORPHAN_GRACE narrows that window but cannot close it: nothing
bounds how long a gap lasts.
An app now counts as installed if its container exists in any state OR its
container name is in the durable last-running snapshot. That snapshot is
what crash_recovery itself calls "installation evidence" and what
reconcile_all_with_mode already trusts to recreate a previously-running app
whose container vanished — the same signal, for the same reason, now shared
rather than reinvented.
Only fedimint is a true orphan on this box: it appears in no adoption list
and has no quadlet unit of its own. lnd is installed and merely flapping,
which is a separate bug.
Container suite 215/215.
