Public bug reported:

While downloading updates in synaptic, click the option in the download
window to show the full details of each package being downloaded. The
window shows a table of details. The last column is called "URI", but
this is wrong as it seems to be showing something more like Ubuntu
package location syntax, instead of properly formed URIs.

Either the URI column should be showing URIs, or the column label should
be changed to something else. Showing URIs would almost certainly be
more useful. If somebody decides to look into this, the text in that
table also really needs to be made selectable and copyable.
