Package: apt
Version: 1.0.7
Followup-For: Bug #732937

I still get error messages like this one.

ioctl(TIOCSCTTY) failed for fd: 17

It's true that dpkg does not fail completely anymore but the text
formatting makes the output unnecessarily hard to read. Hence my
suggestion to ship the workaround in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/

Here are the requested extra information:
