Summary and Info:

When using the "yes" utility to autoconfirm pacman prompt, pacman output a broken line.

"yes" is used here instead of "--noconfirm" to autocomfirm everything in a script/AUR helper, including conflicts (pacman default answer is "No").




Steps to Reproduce:

Install package with "yes":
$ sudo sh -c "yes | pacman-color -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/cower-3.0.5-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz"

See the broken line in the output:
