Bug#770100: 'apt-get' sends a question to the standard output instead of '/dev/tty'
Package: apt
Version: 1.0.9.3
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
Sending the output of 'apt-get' to a file instead of using 'script'.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
apt-get upgrade > /tmp/upgrade
* What was the outcome of this action?
The usual question did not appear on the display.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
The question should appear as if the command were 'apt-get upgrade'.
