    Hi,

    Facing same problem from last 3 days. I am uninstalling Nginx from WHM interface but somehow in nightly update or system cron job it returns back.

    This is a known issue, and we have a workaround posted at https://support.cpanel.net/hc/en-us/articles/34566619293463-gather-update-log-stats-installs-ea-nginx-when-cpanel-analytics-version-1-4-57-8-8-1-is-installed with more details.

    We're tracking this in case CPANEL-49010 so if I hear any updates on that I'll be sure to post!

    Update - we released an update to the analytics package that was causing this issue around 6PM Central time tonight, so things should be resolved after your server updates this evening.

    Ok thanks for the reply.
    My hosting provider done the following change 
    sudo apt-mark hold ea-nginx
    and now the issue stopped since last 2 days. 

    Do I need to do anything else ?

    You shouldn't need to have any packages locked at this point as everything has returned to normal related to this issue.
