Scripted install: Failed to open terminal

Asked by Marcus Ilgner

Trying to install the package from within a Vagrant provisioning script, it fails because it cannot open the terminal when trying to ask whether the current rules should be saved.

The script could check whether the terminal can be opened. If it can't, it should use a default confguration (saving the current rules seems like a good default).

Release: 14.04
Package Version: 0.5.7

Expected: automated installation succeeds
Observed: automated setup breaks

The question would be how to configure the behaviour when in non-interactive mode.
