Hello eingousef,
thanks for caring about apt-listbugs.

It looks like you're searching for a way to tell apt-listbugs to
continue with the installation or upgrade, no matter how many bugs are
introduced into the system by this operation (even when errors occur
while apt-listbugs runs). Without automatically pin buggy packages.

There's already a way to achieve this. Try setting things up so that
apt-listbugs is passed the following options: -N -y

In order to do this, please modify /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/10apt-listbugs
by replacing the following line:

  DPkg::Pre-Install-Pkgs {"/usr/bin/apt-listbugs apt";};

with:

  DPkg::Pre-Install-Pkgs {"/usr/bin/apt-listbugs -N -y apt";};


Does this achieve your goal?
Please let me know.
