Bug Description
* Do you want to set PPAs for amd64 architecture (Y/n)?
Please enter 'Y' or 'N'!
* Do you want to set PPAs for amd64 architecture (Y/n)?
Typically in shell interactions, capitalized letter choices are the default used if you choose nothing. So in the above case, the expected result is that simply hitting return would automatically use Y.
For at least these questions, however (I didn't test this on every question during maniacs-setup), hitting return simply results in my being asked again. I have to manually type y<return> to proceed.

I should add, that further into this segment, N as a default is respected:
* Do you want to set PPAs for amd64 architecture (Y/n)?
Please enter 'Y' or 'N'!
* Do you want to set PPAs for amd64 architecture (Y/n)? y
* Do you want to set PPAs for i386 architecture (y/N)?
* Do you want to set PPAs for arm64 architecture (y/N)?
* Do you want to set PPAs for armhf architecture (y/N)?
* Do you want to set PPAs for ppc64el architecture (y/N)?
* Do you want to set PPAs for s390x architecture (y/N)?
*
* Adding PPAs for the following architectures: amd64
So the issue seems to be only when Y is the default.
