Bug Description
I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 dev with apt 1.1.3 and I'm noticing that for example if on executing "apt-get update" error messages are shown they are often broken. They are missing sometimes characters which seem to be splitted across multiple lines. It looks that apt doesn't ensure writing complete lines if stdout and stderr are used.

Without an example nobody will ever know what you might mean.
You might be meaning accidentally debug output – I that happened sometime ago, could be 1.1 and should be fixed in newer versions. Or perhaps you mean that you enabled debug output and expect it to be all orderly – not going to happen: Multiple processes are running here which would need to be synced by an additional output layer all so that debug output looks nicer…). Or you mean sometimes else which might or might not be a bug (still). Without additional details it is at least not an actionable bugreport hence set to 'incomplete'.
