When trying to build an Elixir project, each `mix` invocation raises a warning:

$ mix
Mix requires Hex >= 2.0.6 but you have 2.0.5
Shall I abort the current command and update Hex? [Yn]

There does not seem to be a way to disable this prompt, which makes the tool
unusable in scripts.

Either the version dependency should be patched, or erlang-hex needs to be
patched, hopefully before trixie is released.

thanks

This was rather a bug in erlang-hex, but anyway it is done already.
