Bug Description
Binary package hint: aptitude
At the command prompt when you type "aptitude why" you get the following:
why: this command requires at least one argument (the package to query).
Notice there is no newline after the error message so the prompt is directly after the error message. It should appear like so:
why: this command requires at least one argument (the package to query).

My version information:
Description: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
Release: 10.04
aptitude:
Installed: 0.4.11.11-1ubuntu10
Candidate: 0.4.11.11-1ubuntu10
Version table:
*** 0.4.11.11-1ubuntu10 0

I have attached a patch, and I believe this problem is solved in later versions of aptitude, so there may be not much benefit pushing upstream.
