Public bug reported: 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? ** Affects: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed ** Tags: gnome-terminal ** Changed in: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/943873 Title: gnome-terminal ellipses inconsistency Status in “gnome-terminal” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I have noticed that the Terminal in Ubuntu is kind of inconsistent when it comes to printing out the ellipses.
