Are there risks using -y flag?

Yes, there are some risks associated with using the -y flag:

Unintended Installations: You may inadvertently install packages that you did not intend to, as the command will proceed without asking for confirmation.
Dependency Changes: The installation may also include changes to dependencies that could affect other installed software, potentially leading to conflicts or issues.
Removal of Packages: In some cases, using -y can lead to the removal of existing packages if they are deemed unnecessary or if there are conflicts with new installations.
Lack of Awareness: You might miss important warnings or messages that would normally be presented during the installation process.

It's advisable to use the -y flag with caution, especially on production systems or when installing critical software.
