>From my understanding all the capital letter means is that that is the
default option, but it is not actually case specific. And I know for a
fact that it is not case specific because I have upgraded many things
many times and installed many pieces of software, and I have always used
a lowercase 'y', and all has always been well, even now after it
happened, a lowercase 'y' does the trick.

Title:
  Apt did the opposite of what I told it to do when it asked me a yes or
  no question

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Today I executed the command:

      sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

  And this was the output:

      Reading package lists... Done
      Building dependency tree       
      Reading state information... Done
      Calculating upgrade... Done
      The following packages will be upgraded:
        aptdaemon aptdaemon-data python-aptdaemon python-aptdaemon.gtk3widgets
        python3-aptdaemon python3-aptdaemon.gtk3widgets python3-aptdaemon.pkcompat
        wpasupplicant
      8 to upgrade, 0 to newly install, 0 to remove and 0 not to upgrade.
      Need to get 1,146 kB of archives.
      After this operation, 3,072 B of additional disk space will be used.
      Do you want to continue? [Y/n] 

  So I answered 'y' (without the quotes), and this was the output:

      Abort.

  And it seemingly aborted instead of doing what I said, although when I
  ran the command again, it installed the upgrades instead of aborting,
  but I just thought that I should report this as it seemed buggy as
  this is not what it is meant to do.
