You failed to mention what these "wrong characters" are… perhaps with a copy&paste or a screenshot. If APT runs with an UTF-8 codeset it now uses utf8 block characters, if it isn't it falls back to the "old" style of using #. The code is here: https://salsa.debian.org/apt-team/apt/-/blob/main/apt-pkg/install-progress.cc?ref_type=heads#L346-367 The block characters are btw: ▏ ▎ ▍ ▌ ▋ ▊ ▉ █ as in: those chars including & following "U+2588 FULL BLOCK" So, honestly, I don't see much opportunity for apt to be wrong here and would guess its either your transit layers messing up or your chosen font not supporting these characters; but I am happy to be proven wrong given utf8 isn't my expertise.
