I am in the process of trying to automate Proxmox5 to Proxmox6 as much as possible for some simple 1 node setups out in the field.

I am able to automate most of the apt-get aspect using something like this.

DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive \
apt-get \
-o Dpkg::Options::=--force-confnew \
-o Dpkg::Options::=--force-confdef \
-y --allow-downgrades --allow-remove-essential --allow-change-held-packages \
dist-upgrade

However I am wondering if there is anyway to get around the pve-apt-hook which makes you hit enter to continue after the package download?
 
the APT hook is configured via /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/10pveapthook , so unless the package ships a new version of that file some day, you can disable the hook by editing it. if it ships a new version, --force-confnew will install that new version and likely re-enable the hook.

Great info, I appreciate it as always.
