What I would like to see in nala? #47

I'd really like to see a confirmation option added when installing packages, e.g. using a command like nala install -y hello should bypass the confirmation. Additionally, I've noticed that there's no way to cancel a download once it starts. For example, when I tried to install neofetch, I hit Ctrl + C to stop the process, but nala just froze. This forced me to reboot my entire server because it was consuming 100% of the CPU. Having an option to cancel downloads would be incredibly helpful and prevent situations like this. obraz

I'm not sure I understand, I assume hello here would be the package name? If so nala install -y hello will bypass the confirmation prompt. Additionally if you hit Ctrl + C it will stop the downloads, at least on mine it does.

Which version of Nala are you using right now?

Maybe show output of apt list "nala*"
