Package: apt
Version: 1.0.3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?

Upgrade of apt

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

apt-get dist-upgrade

   * What was the outcome of this action?

Only the first 80 columns of the screen where used

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

As previously, all columns (> 200 on this screen) would be used.

*** End of the template - remove these template lines ***

Until recently, apt-get was using the entire screen width. In this
case, I'm logging in on the console via ssh to this machine.

Now only about 80 columns are used, wasting the screen width. I did
not see any change in debian/changelog (with apt-listchanges) nor did
I find an option in apt-get(1) about screen width.

It would be great if apt-get could be restored to use the entire
screen width again (like it did until I upgraded apt just now).

Sorry for the delay & thanks for the report!

Was a silly oversight and should be gone now after the current upload
hits the archive:
