Comment:

 Replying to [comment:4 boklm]:
 > In branch `bug_29194` I made a patch setting
 `DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive`. However, I didn't fully test it yet, and
 because it is changing build instructions for all containers, it will
 require everything to be rebuilt.

 > With #29235 we stopped using buster in `projects/https-everywhere`,
 however we still use in in `projects/tor-browser` for `android-armv7`.
 Before merging the fix that will require rebuilding everything, I think we
 could start by fixing it only for `projects/tor-browser` on `android-
 armv7`:
 > https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/boklm/tor-browser-
 build.git/commit/?h=bug_29194_android&id=c87154eadb5920aa54e52763fd092dea56e97485
 >
 > And later merge the full fix, after more testing.

 What's the plan here? Bite the bullet and merge the full fix for getting
 everything rebuilt and tested before 8.5 gets stable? Or anything else?
