I would rather see apt following dpkg in this regard. It looks better
with a space before the ellipsis as I have looked more closely now (not
when writing text like this though). I just want this things to be
consistent, otherwise it bothers me...

Title:
gnome-terminal ellipses inconsistency
Status in “apt” package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
I have noticed that the Terminal in Ubuntu is kind of inconsistent
when it comes to printing out the ellipses. Let me give you two
examples:
(1) Reading package lists... Done
(2) Processing triggers for man-db ...
I expect for the second example to be printed out as this:
(2) Processing triggers for man-db...
Why put a space before the ellipsis? There are many cases where this inconsistency is obvious if you install a package. It would be nice to see all the ellipses stick to the last word, not separated away from it by a space. Is this fixable?
