Hi Arnab, thanks for the contribution.
A couple of notes:
<<1<<
Prefer uploading a patch file instead of a copy of the file that is to
be changed. You say
> Attached: arnab-doc-patch.diff
but actually a copy of utils.py is attached.
Even better would be to submit a merge request to
https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/update-manager/+git/update-
manager/+ref/main.
<<2<<
The new docstring says
> (e.g., 'libssl1.1' could be split as 'libssl1.' on one line and '1' on
the next).
I think you mean libssl1-1.
<<3<<
There were functional changes resulting from replacing utils.py with
your copy. I do not know if this was intentional or because I placed
your file in a different branch than you did.
I trimmed down the docstrings changes to
https://git.launchpad.net/~nteodosio/update-
manager/commit/?id=5d4162c71fa3b07c633fe26d6325a9b4dbba214e. Can you
please check that is what you intended?
I can go ahead with a merge request for that, or you could do it
yourself (it would be nice to preserve your authorship in the author
field rather than in the commit message as I did).
What do you think?

Title:
Improve docstrings in UpdateManager/Core/utils.py (wrap, twrap, lsmod)
Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
Hi,
Improved docstrings in UpdateManager/Core/utils.py for better clarity:
- wrap(): Explained why custom wrapper is needed (textwrap breaks package names on '-')
- twrap(): Clarified multi-paragraph handling and use cases
- lsmod(): Documented intentional return of [] on failure
Pure documentation changes — no code changes, no behavior changes,
safe for all users.
Attached: arnab-doc-patch.diff
Thanks!
Arnab Patra
