A request for bootstrap.sh #184

Open Ahmed-E-86 opened 4 years ago

Ahmed-E-86 commented 4 years ago

When I launch bootstrap.sh, it demands me to press y to accept, then enter to confirm. Is there any way to install it silently without any user interaction? If the answer is no, could you please add this option?

I know that using bootstrap.sh requires entering root password, but I can make a script to install this application, and all the applications that I want automatically, and just give sudo permission to that script.

I just add -y to the end of every command I use on Linux Mint to run it silently, but when I try it with bootstrap it gives me this error message:

meson: error: unrecognized arguments: -y

y | yourcommand should work, basically inputs y for you. If you need root run it with the proper privileges.

That doesn't work.

Please don't run bootstrap.sh as root.
y: command not found

That script isn't really intended for automation, just for convenient manual setup. What do you need it for?

Probably meant yes | command
