--force-yes seems to be a quick and handy workaround; 
it's the chroot and I don't think it would be so disastrous
to break it with --force-yes.

--allow-unauthenticated requires some conditionals, 
we may try to work towards it at a later time.



I'll prepare a 0.128; anyone care to sponsor-upload ?
