When updating the agent (i.e. through the auto updater) there was only a fairly short timeout for the agent-service to stop. If the agent failed to stop in time (i.e. because of a long-running plugin) the agent was still installed but the service wasn't started afterwards. This has now been fixed by enforcing an unlimited wait when the service is being shut down.
