Sending enter in interaction mode ubuntu 13.10

I'm trying to make a basic script for deployment of ocs-inventory and I got stuck on a problem.

When I issue this command:

sudo apt-get install -y ocsinventory-agent

The interactive window appears. The only thing I need to do is press enter.

It's the same type of graphic prompt which you get when you are installing kerberos5.

Is there any possibility to include the "enter" in script ?

Basically you have to preseed the answer for debconf:

sudo apt-get install debconf-utils

echo "ocsinventory-agent ocsinventory-agent/method select local" | sudo debconf-set-selections

sudo apt-get install -y --force-yes ocsinventory-agent

You can obviously change local by server for your needs.
