Hi Tim,
This doesn't sound much different from e.g. installing some software
inside a docker container for instance.
I'm not a hundred percent sure which distribution you're using there
(but that could be a text-based, non-ncurses Debian dialog). In that
case, setting *DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive*as an environment variable
should do the trick.
I have installed backuppc a lot using puppet in the past, I actually
have never run into the configuration dialog, I'm guessing the puppet
module or puppet itself is handling this… my bet is on puppet's
"package" method, since there is no sign of DEBIAN_FRONTEND in the
module itself.
Similar flags ought to exist for other distros I'd assume.
Regards,
David

Hi List!
I am trying to automate the backuppc install and setup procedure and
found that during the installation process the following dialog is
started:
Which currently breaks my script which should automatically go ahead
with the installation. Is there a flag or environment variable to set,
in order to get over this question without manual interaction?
Thanks in advance! Tim
