Not seen that.
I get them all the time at "apt-get install" and the like on my Debian
box at work.
Then don't run Debian. ;) I run Ubuntu (yes I know, Debian-based)
and I've NEVER seen such a "wizard" pop up, in probably two hundred
runs of "apt-get install".
Neither have I in probably 10 years of running Debian. You get prompted
by the occasional config frontend that drops a basic configuration on
install time depending on your choices (standard example: postfix, there
are a couple of reasonable defaults), but obviously one later wades in
with vi(m) and adjusts them appropriately.
Kind regards,
Alex.
