Description:
I came across this when I was using tty console and, instead of regular spaces saw funny characters.

$ pacman -Ss libreoffice-kde4 | less
Thanks to less, the output is somehow well-displayed. I researched some of the issue, and posted the results beneath. Seriously... blergh.

I cannot reproduce this, no weird symbols are display on tty console.
Can you specify your locale and consolefont settings?

UTF-8 c2a0 is a "non breaking space", I'm not sure about the origin, can happen with copy&paste.

There are no funny characters here. PKGBUILD for gpg-crypter could be fixed but no issue would appear in normal use, and Libreoffice could be cleaned up. Apart from that I don't see what is the issue.
