[Pkg-openssl-devel] libssl unattended installation

Hi all,

We develop windows/linux patch management product and we run 'aptitude' 
commands from our product on debian systems for patch management.
Patches are always installed in unattended mode since they will be 
deployed over hundreds of systems.

When we run 'aptitude --assume-yes install libssl0.9.8', it comes up 
with a dialog that says

"Configuring libssl0.9.8

Security Holes were fixed in this release. Services may not use these 
fixes until they are restarted.
xxx xxx xxxx"

and waits for the user to hit "OK".

Is there any way the package can be installed without any user 
interaction ? ( --assume-yes option is already specified for the 
aptitude command )

Thanks a lot in advance for any tips you provide.

Thanks,
Srivatsan.
