DL3014: Use the -y switch for apt-get install
Warning Efficiency
Why This Matters
apt-get install without -y (or --yes) prompts for confirmation interactively. Since there is no terminal to respond during a Docker build, the build will hang or fail. In CI/CD pipelines, this causes silent build failures that are difficult to diagnose. Always use -y to auto-confirm installations.
How to Fix
Add -y flag to apt-get install
Before (incorrect)
RUN apt-get install curlAfter (correct)
