I tried using the -n option but this only bypasses the first question which is:
"Do you want to remove this package? [y,n,?,q]"
-n just automates this question and after that I get the second one along with the error message:
"This package contains scripts which will be executed with super-user
permission during the process of removing this package.
Removal of <new_package> was suspended (interaction required)."
and the script terminates.
If I don't use -n then the second prompt is:
"This package contains scripts which will be executed with super-user
permission during the process of removing this package.
Do you want to continue with the removal of this package [y,n,?,q]
Removal of <new_package> failed.
No changes were made to the system." (looks like I typed 'n' or 'q')
Any other suggestions?
