Package: debconf
Version: 1.5.20
Severity: wishlist

You know, I have the funny feeling that warning messages like

  Setting up apt-listchanges (2.82) ...
  debconf: unable to initialize frontend: Dialog
  debconf: (Dialog frontend will not work on a dumb terminal, an emacs
  shell buffer, or without a controlling terminal.)
  debconf: falling back to frontend: Readline
  Creating config file /etc/apt/listchanges.conf with new version

seen here in an emacs shell buffer are unnecessary: the transition
should be natural, and more importantly, in this instance we were in
fact not going to be asked a question. The program's order apparently
is
  check and warn if I am in an emacs shell etc. buffer && any questions?
  && ask them
whereas it should be
  any questions? && check and warn if I am in an emacs shell etc. buffer
  && ask them
