Bug Description

When I invoke QApt Package Installer (usually the default for package installations under Kubuntu 14.04), the status output all appears on one line, which makes it unreadable. I expect that the problem has to do with an error in the end-of-line logic for whatever is logging the installation output. Perhaps newlines are being ignored.
