No, the problem is that TIOCSCTTY is not automatic on FreeBSD,
like it is with eglibc. The disturbing issue is this:

   Processing triggers for man-db (...) .....
   ioctl(TIOCSCTTY) failed for fd: 18
                                     Setting up ...

I have not been able to figure out which component,
to whom apt-get is delegating actions, would be the
culprit in this matter.
