Bug Description

I am creating some container images that I provision with iperf3.
Since Ubuntu 22.10 it looks like the following command hangs when there is no pseudo terminal assigned:

 $ apt -y install iperf3

 I tried that using a lxd container:

 $ lxc exec -T ubuntu2210container apt -- -y install iperf3

 That will lock the terminal and a dialog appears with the following text

 │ Choose this option if Iperf3 should start automatically as a daemon, now │
 │ and at boot time. │
 │ │
 │ Start Iperf3 as a daemon automatically? │

If I do the same in a Ubuntu 22.04 then the command is installed as normal.
