Good day,

It's impossible to use xargs with interactive program such as apt-get.
When I try to do following:
#cat del
foo
bar
#cat del | xargs apt-get remove

The apt-get program terminates, after question:
Do you want to conginue ? [Y/n]
I suppose, that apt-get receives the eof symbol from xargs and then terminates.
Is it a bug?

Regards,

Sergey
