it's currently seems harmless, and I'm guessing it might be related to recent SMI change (scylladb/scylla-machine-image#466)

And as written it's harmless

We should review if we need this command in SCT, but for now nothing would be done with it

fix(update_repo_cache): stop calling debconf-set-selections
0fdd999 
this call was add long ago for unclear reasons
probably try to make sure we won't be asked questions
during apt commands.

recently it's failing like the following:

```
error: Cannot find a question for debconf/frontend
```

while still no causing any issue for any tests,
so we going to remove this call out
