And then apt runs debconf, and debconf receives whatever keypress that
was interrupting apt. Sounds risky to me.

I'd try running apt from iLO/BMC/ILOM.

I suppose 'apt install <a_few_packages>' (repeated) might do it.

I would first upgrade apt and dpkg.

$apt install apt dpkg

Just my 2¢

Hi, 

just an idea: apt is calling either apt-get or aptitude, whatever it thinks is 
the best option. I believe, in this case it is calling aptitude, what is not 
the best choice for a full distribution upgrade.

I suggest, to run 

apt-get update

then 

apt-get dist-upgrade

If this works, run 

aptitude full-upgrade

When your system is fully upgrade, you can do all the upgrades with apt again.


Hope this helps!

Good luck and all the best

Thnk you for all your answers.

I have not found this option -y in apt, but it works and buster is 
installed!

apt dist-upgrade and apt autoremove  have the same problem worked aroun 
by -y option.


Anyway,  have found that the problem occurs only in a ssh session not 
directly on the local console !!

I do not understand why ?

The apt manual says:

so, to some extent, this is a justification for the -y option not being
documented. dist-upgrade is not documented either.

Neither does anyone else, I think. You could think in terms of its being
a bug and reporting it.

I saw that this thread was already solved. Congratulations! I just
wanted to highlight that last line there and thank the Developer(s)
who added it to apt. It's a handy, useful tip popping up in a very
appropriate place that makes it accessible to users of various
experience levels. I'm always hopeful that tips like that inspire new
users to follow their curiosity over to "man apt" to see what other
helpful flags/commands might be humbly lurking in the nearby shadows.

I don't know if that part was considered also solved so am a-suming
most likely yes. Just throwing in that there's always the possibility
of a stuck keyboard key if nothing else works in that specific kind of
case.

Stuck keyboard keys are the first thing I test. I do so by giving my
Ctrl, Alt, and Shift keys (all *6* of them if present) a couple pops.
Doesn't always help, but it *has* helped enough that it's a conscious
check point on my own debugging list. :)
