Hello, there.
This is my first time with Sparky (although I've used Debian and Ubuntu for more than a decade) and I've noticed that apt cancels package installations if it has to receive confirmation from the user. Example: I'm installing something, I use 'sudo apt install package-name-with-dependencies' and, if I don't use the -y flag, it will cancel the installation automatically if there are dependencies to install. Debian and Ubuntu don't do this: apt waits for the user input, be it 'y' or 'n'.
Where can this be configured? I can't seem to find a file with these options.
Hmm , interesting. I looked at man apt.conf I do not seem to have one as root updatedb then locate apt.conf - <I do not have one. oot@raunesat:/# updatedb
root@raunesat:/# locate apt.conf

nano /usr./share/doc/apt/examples/apt.conf is a very bland and weird file. Hopefully others have more ideas and/or help.
You can pass arguments to avoid getting prompts. This works for me.
force-confold (my choice) will make these "What do you want to do about modified configuration file" questions default to N (keep your currently-installed version)
bluestacks.vip luckypatcher.pro kodi.softwaresome modified configuration files can break your system if kept back & not compatible with updated package version.
Please test it before deploying in automation solutions.
