Bug Description

Results are truncated when using "apt search". For instance "sudo aptitude search firefox" gives readable results while "apt search firefox" truncates them. The problem seems to come from either the Unix pipe or aptitude itself since "sudo aptitude search firefox | grep firefox" truncates the results as well.

As a solution we could stop using pipe and highlight the results ourselves...

Confirmed in Linux Mint Gloria
mintSystem v7.4.9
