Hi Kangarooo, thanks for taking the time to make this bug report and
help make Ubuntu better.

This is a long standing bug in apt because of its use of carriage
returns. Sometimes the line gets a bit shorter or longer based on the
number of bytes or tasks left to do, so the s that was printed gets left
over.

I'm fairly certain this has been around a long, long time, I can
remember seeing it years ago.

Marking Confirmed, as I've seen this as well.

Setting Importance to Low, as this is purely cosmetic.

** Changed in: apt (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Confirmed

** Changed in: apt (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided => Low
