Installing packages freezes in a self-hosted runner

See original GitHub issue

Hi,

I’m trying to run end-to-end tests using Playwright on a self-hosted Ubuntu 18.04 runner. However, this action hangs when installing packages via APT (see output below) since it’s waiting for the user to press <kbd>Y</kbd>.

It seems this is caused by missing -y flag in command /usr/bin/sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends .... Should it be appended to the command?

Run microsoft/playwright-github-action@v1
