Title:
"The following additional packages will be installed" and "The
following NEW packages will be installed"
Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
I did:
$ sudo apt-get install cinnamon-desktop-environment
I attach the complete output below.
There are two blocks among others:
The following additional packages will be installed:
(....)
The following NEW packages will be installed:
(....)
The two lists massively overlap, though they are not exactly identical.
The phrasing is ambiguous to start with: even if the two lists didn't
overlap at all, I would be quite confused by this message, because
it's not clear what the difference is supposed to be between
"additional" packages that are going to be installed and "NEW"
packages that are going to be installed. That alone is an issue.
But the fact that the two lists are almost (but not quite) identical,
makes me wonder whether something is wrong, like a duplicate source or
something. If that was the case, there should be a warning clarifying
it. If all is ok, then again, the phrasing is deficient.
