Description:

This is a very minor problem, but since it's been around for a little while now and no one else seems to have noticed, I thought I'd mention it.

When pacman is downloading packages, it tries to display one decimal place for transfer rates <100 KB/s and no decimal places for rates >100 KB/s. Currently, the boundary case of 100 KB/s is handled wrongly and shown with one decimal place, causing the text to wrap to the next line in an 80-column terminal. The result is the following (note the repeated lines for linux-3.1-4):
