Apt seems to produce some strange output when piped through 'tee'. For
example:
$ apt-get install swi-prolog | tee output.txt

(The strange indentation being literal.) The output.txt file does not
contain this indentation and installing the same package via ``dpkg -i''
does not reproduce the problem.
Although it does not cause any real problems, it looks rather odd - the
live-magic tool uses "tee" when building a Live system, which then appears
quite ugly for end users.
