You have been subscribed to a public bug by William Hatheway (hathewaywill):

When trying to set up a new 24.04 installation and use the following
commands, you MUST configure postfix even if it is not installed.

sudo -S apt -y install autoconf automake bison build-essential byacc
cmake csh curl default-jdk default-jre emacs flex g++ gawk gcc gfortran
git ksh libcurl4-openssl-dev libjpeg-dev libncurses6 libpixman-1-dev
libpng-dev libtool libxml2 libxml2-dev m4 make  ncview okular openbox
pipenv pkg-config  python3 python3-dev python3-pip python3-dateutil tcsh
unzip xauth xorg time

Even using the askubuntu help page about installing it and purging it
did not make the bug go away.  You have to set up and install postfix to
use apt.

I expect that the postfix prompt wouldn't show up like I would see in
22.04.

Only in 24.04 does this happen.
