Package: apt-dater-host
Version: 1.0.0-4
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Starting with the version in jessie apt-dater-host checks whether packages 
would get removed. If using aptitude the --simulate still asks if the user 
wants to continue. Since the output is captured the user doesn't see the 
question and the upgrade appears to hang.

The upgrade continues when the user presses <RETURN> or ^D. The bug can be 
fixed by either passing --assume-yes or redirecting stdin from /dev/null in 
line 323.
