[Touch-packages] [Bug 1566657] Re: [apt] implement --yes
The apt(8) manpage doesn't list any options (okay, it mentions a selected few, but it has no long list like the other manpages). It lists only subcommands like 'install' or 'show' and refers the reader to the manpage of apt-get or apt-cache or whatever for details because repeating the very same options would not only be a big duplication, but also a freaking long manpage nobody will ever read AND it will also be confusing because the hundreds of options in such a manpage would apply each only to a selected few of the subcommands. So, yeah, the user will have to read the manpages of the underlying applications he or she is pointed to be the apt manpages – but given the potential alternative of lumping all manpages into a single big one, that feels like a feature. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apt in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1566657 Title: [apt] implement --yes Status in apt package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Please implement the option '--yes' (known from apt-get) in apt itself.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1566657] Re: [apt] implement --yes
I think it is mix of my misstake and missing documentation. "--yes"works but is not documented in the manpage of "apt". For the user it doesn't matter if apt use "--yes" itself or just give it to the underlying apt-get or anything else. The user use "apt" to don't even think about anymore about apt-get. So the user won't read manpages of underlying applications. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apt in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1566657 Title: [apt] implement --yes Status in apt package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Please implement the option '--yes' (known from apt-get) in apt itself.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1566657] Re: [apt] implement --yes
well, apt 1.2.10 is in xenial and in that version my example works, so I fear you will need to provide a few more details like the entire output and commandline of the command you try. (it works also in earlier versions and I am relatively sure it works since the dawn of the apt-binary as its used in our testcases, but I have just tried with my local build) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apt in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1566657 Title: [apt] implement --yes Status in apt package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Please implement the option '--yes' (known from apt-get) in apt itself.

Please mention the exact command you are trying as --yes is implemented in apt… e.g. "apt install sauerbraten --yes". ** Changed in: apt (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apt in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1566657 Title: [apt] implement --yes Status in apt package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Please implement the option '--yes' (known from apt-get) in apt itself.
