Status in “aptitude” package in Ubuntu: Triaged
Bug description:
Binary package hint: aptitude
At the command prompt when you type "aptitude why" you get the following:
why: this command requires at least one argument (the package to query).bbeck at tardis:~$
Notice there is no newline after the error message so the prompt is directly after the error message. It should appear like so:
why: this command requires at least one argument (the package to query).

My version information:
Description: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
Release: 10.04
aptitude:
Installed: 0.4.11.11-1ubuntu10
Candidate: 0.4.11.11-1ubuntu10
Version table:
*** 0.4.11.11-1ubuntu10 0
500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
I have attached a patch, and I believe this problem is solved in later versions of aptitude, so there may be not much benefit pushing upstream.
