Hi!
The pkcon tool does definitely not save this option... Are you sure it
is applied to every pkcon command?

Dear Maintainer,
Running pkcon -y or --noninteractive will cause all future pkcon operations
to be run in noninteractive mode. Far as I can tell there is no way to revert
to the standard prompts for confirmation.

After looking into this some more I have realized that my initial bug
report is incorrect. This seems to not be related to the -y switch at
all, but if I accept the simulation for installing a package once it
always assumes I want to accept it in the future. And, sometimes I am
not asked for a confirmation for removal of a package at all, this lead
me to believe running -y caused this. See this terminal session where I
install a package I never installed or removed in the past (In this case
network-manager-gnome on a Xfce install that ships WICD)
http://paste.debian.net/hidden/7fc7d5cf
Expected behavior is to always be asked before installing or removing a
package unless -y is specified. If my assumption that pkcon is meant
to always ask is incorrect, there should at least be an option listed in
pkcon --help to force this confirmation.
