One of the purposes of install-module.pl is for it to make all decisions for the user so that they don't have to involve themselves with endless questions from CPAN that they might not be equipped to answer. However, some modules use Module::AutoInstall, and we're not properly handling the prompts that that can generate.
Attached patch v1Splinter Review
This fixes it for all the prompts that I can generate by installing every single module with --all.
