The message can not be shown only if the package is going to ask
questions as debconf would need to extract the questions beforehand (and
find none) for that to work – but it can't do that without apt-utils. :)
Not sure about the stderr vs. stdout, I guess the rational is that its
more important
I suggest printing the message on stdout instead of stderr to emphasize
that it is an informal message and not a warning.

Thanks David for the explanation.
Would it be possible to silence the message for packages that doesn't
need to ask questions?

apt-utils is not required & this is not a warning (in the sense of an
unimportant error), but an information why debconf isn't asking
questions to configure all packages upfront at the start of the run, but
will ask questions (if any) while the packages are actually installed as
needed potentially
