Bug#253860: dpkg -l | cat still truncates information

[Hervé Eychenne <rv@eychenne.org>]

Package: dpkg
Version: 1.10.21
Severity: minor

 Hi,

$ dpkg -l
truncates information to the terminal width. So be it.

But
$ dpkg -l | cat
still truncates information, which is clearly wrong.

Note:
$ ps | cat
has the right kind of expected behavior instead.

Thanks,
