[Bug 1659717] [NEW] Software Updater - showing Details doesn't display whole download

[Tim Duncan]

Public bug reported:

When you click on "Details" on Software Updater while it's downloading
an update you only see the bottom half of the current file being
downloaded.  This is the behaviour regardless of the size of the window.
Once the download finishes the terminal window that shows the install of
the update displays normally.

1) The release of Ubuntu you are using: Ubuntu 16.10
2) The version of the package you are using: 1:16.10.7
3) What you expected to happen: Expected to see the whole line for the update being downloaded plus all the files already downloaded.
4) What happened instead: Only saw the bottom half of the current download.
