Research direction
Start with package-manager/template/test/goss.yaml.jinja2 and review its existing checks for users, groups, packages, ports, processes, files, and commands. Compare the potential expansion areas in this issue and review #458 for common Goss patterns. Done means the Package Manager Goss coverage is expanded for the selected service startup and repository-management checks.
