Bug#759771: Allow to align sizes/size differences used in format strings

2016-05-04 Thread Manuel A. Fernandez Montecelo 

Control: close -1

Hi,

2014-08-30 07:03 Benny Baumann:

Package: aptitude
Version: 0.6.11-1
Severity: minor

Let's assume I was using something along the lines of

   %c%a%M%S %?i %p# %Z %10D %10I %4r %20v %20V %t

for the display format of package lists. Now this looks much better than the
default but due to the lack of aligning numbers of the included sizes it
always requires  second look to see the actual sizes. It would be better,
if all sizes could be right aligned with the empty SI prefix treated as
a space, thus instead of

   1,234 B
   12.9 kB
   789 kB

I'd get something like

   1,234.5 kB
  12.9 kB
 789.7 kB


This is basically a duplicate of #323303, so closing.

(Could be merged, but since the other covers all aspects, merging will
only cause to spend extra time when reviewing the other).


Cheers.
