It is actually generating the right amount, but the default output adds
a newline because people want to have their prompt on a new line.

But for any use case that comes to my mind which cares on the newline it is not 
an issue as:
  printf "%s" $(pwgen 16 1) | wc -c

=> 16

** Changed in: pwgen (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Incomplete
