In the time between the bug report and your testing, it was decided that such output is only when --verbose is used. The inconsistency is still there, as confirmed by examination of the code and performing the commands with verbose enabled. This issue and other inconsistencies in the command line interface will be addressed by an extensive work I have in progress to restructure that module, using new tools exported by apt. The foundations of this work was in the 0.6.9 release, but that has been reworked and will be applied once the final changes are complete.
