Thanks for filing this bug and try to help to make Ubuntu better. What you described does not seem a bug. Passing '-y' to apt-get does not imply it will handle conffiles in the way you expect. dpkg handles conffiles and if you want to make it work properly in a non-interactive way you need to tell it what you want. For instance, if you want to always keep the local config file instead of the one provided by the package you can use the --force-confold (force old conffile), you can also combine this option with --force-confdef which will make dpkg install new conffiles if you didn't change it locally.
To pass those options through apt-get CLI you can use something like this: apt-get -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-confdef" -o Dpkg::Options ::="--force-confold" -o quiet=1 upgrade -y -o APT::Get::Show- Upgraded=true For more information about those options you can take a look at: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/xenial/en/man1/dpkg.1.html (I am assuming you are using Xenial based on the version of the packages) Since this is not a bug I am marking this as Invalid. If my explanation was not enough and you do not agree with it, please add more information here and change the status to New again, and we will revisit this bug. ** Changed in: apache2 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server/Client Support Team, which is subscribed to apache2 in Ubuntu.
