What sort of solution do other use for running an apt-get from a script? I use cfengine and pre-prepared site configs, but there are some apps on which apt-get simply won't work because even -y won't force it to shut up and just default to something.
Is there some way on a case by case basis to either feed it an answer or force it to use a blank or whatever, but only when you specifically tell it "install this package and make something up if you need information. I'll handle it, trust me."
