Title:
  Apt inconsistent in reporting download progress

Status in “apt” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  When apt-get is downloading packages from the repository, it reports
  its progress in a very strange way: as bytes complete out of kB total
  (e. g. 1024/77kB total). Surely it'd be better for it to report them
  in the same unit instead of different denominations? It'd be akin to
  reporting that you've run 28,000 metres of a 50-kilometre race.

  It's only a minor oversight, I think, but it's nonetheless irritating.
