Public bug reported:

On upgrade from bionic to cosmic with update-manager, I was shown a
debconf prompt about docker.io that asked: Automatically restart Docker
daemon?

There was no widget in the window that allowed me to select either yes
or no.

This is a grave deficiency in the default debconf frontend on the Ubuntu
desktop.

** Affects: debconf (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Critical
         Status: New

** Changed in: debconf (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided => Critical

** Summary changed:

- gnome frontend gives no widget for answering a boolean prompt
+ gtk3 frontend gives no widget for answering a boolean prompt
