Do enlighten me, does dpkg still allow(!) the package to force interactivity during installation/update? As in, does it still have the ability to completely destroy automatic updates?

Not sure if it *can* force it, but I've been updating automatically (using DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive) for over a year now and I've never come across a situation where it *does* force it.

That's probably what he meant.

What concept do you think the word "default" relates to: format or configuration?
