I'm still happy with the test case. It shows that the debconf socket is independent of whatever frontend is running, and hence closing the frontend can't close the debconf socket. Which means you can just use pkcon / aptdcon to test that bit.

I don't really know of any PackageKit frontend that's heavily affected by this. gnome-software is running as a background service, so I guess you could install via it and then kill it and check that the prompts still work. And the KDE stuff is still broken, as they use their own mess.

For aptdaemon, you could probably write a small script.
