The two things that viewvc-install prompts for when it first fires up
(prefix path, destdir) can be specified at the command-line:

   ./viewvc-install --prefix PREFIX --destdir DESTDIR

But the prompts for what to do about modified files (overwrite, don't
overwrite, view diffs) remain.

It would be pretty easy to add a --non-interactive mode that would move a
conflicting file aside (you know, like turning viewvc.conf into
viewvc.conf.OLD) and then install the new copy of the file.  Would this meet
your needs?
