I know that I can use parameters (with aliases or apt.conf I can even make it permanent) to skip this steep.

But I still want to be warned about major amounts of used disk space, what seems to be purpose of this function.

The problem is that I and apt-get have different opinion what is major amount of disk space

  • for me it would be over 200MB.

And apt-get

  • well:

    After this operation, 9805 kB of additional disk space will be used. Do you want to continue? [Y/n] y

This is not possible with tool itself. The script linked by @ByteCommander would be nice if slightly modified. I think apt-get could use this feature. Consider making a feature request or asking a question. Offering a patch is a little more challenging but makes it more likely you and others can get the feature.
