How to pkg update without any prompt

[khansaad1275]

Whenever I am trying to create a script I update the termux packages, and since it is a script i want everything to happen automatically without any prompt, so I use pkg update -y, this way it doesn't ask me for (Y/n) But it always asks me for openssl.cnf ( as you can see in the below image)

Is There any way I can bypass this too? And always go with the N ( default ) option.

• Thank you.

Use apt-get install -y -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-confdef" -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-confold" <package_name> command to install/update the packages. The -y is to assume yes as answer to all prompts and run non-interactively. The dpkg options are related to conf files. During updates, any conf file that has been previously modified by the user will not be replaced with the new version provided by updated package and no prompts will be shown to allow for command to run non-interactively. Check https://manpages.debian.org/jessie/dpkg/dpkg.1.en.html for more info.

If your script runs in background/non-interactively, then you shouldn't be using pkg since its a wrapper for apt and should use apt-get instead. You can run apt-get update if not using pkg to update apt cache before apt-get install, pkg does that automatically.
