Package: autopkgtest
Version: 2.3.8
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/adt-run

Hi,

Thanks for autopkgtest! 

I'm trying to write some tests for one of my package and I noticed that
when installing the dependencies I get Debconf prompts for packages
requiring them.

It is probably better to set a non-interactive frontend for the tests so
they can run unattended. I can probably configure the chroot do not do
the prompting but it would be nicer if adt-virt-schroot took care of it.

Thanks,
