I'm building a VirtualBox VM based on Ubuntu, for use under Vagrant. Because I'm explicitly installing about 200 packages (and implicitly installing a few thousand more), I have no interest in answering configuration questions interactively. So, I have scripted the installation process using "apt-get install -y".
This works for almost every package, but there are several (e.g., chef, chef-zero, emacspeak, jack, kde, mailutils, nodm) which still want to ask questions about configuration settings. It seems to me that there should be a way (e.g., configuration file, environment variable) to specify these settings in advance. However, I haven't found any documentation on that possibility. Can anyone provide me with information and/or pointers on this?
More generally, I'd like to examine the APT-related files for these packages, but I'm not sure about the easiest way to do this. I've tried looking at pages such as "https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nodm" and "https://code.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nodm", but they don't seem to lead to anything useful. What's the Golden Path for getting to these files?
