I have a bash script with the following in it:
DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive
apt-get install $install
From what I've read, this should set the front end for debconf to
non-interactive and should go on ahead with the install I've set up with a list
of packages to install. Everything else in the script works, but as much as
I've played with this (like changing DEBIAN_FRONTEND to DEBCONF_FRONTEND), I
can't get it to work. I saw one example (from this list, 2-3 years ago) that
put it all on one line, but that didn't work either.
Do I have to set the environment variable before running the script? What do I
need to do to be able to install packages? (There's only one question asked in
all these packages and it's a config issue I handle separately anyway.)
Thanks for any help with this!
Hal
