Every command line tool that pretty-prints progress bars and live status reports and all that stuff as it goes along in ways that constantly print characters and require a cursor-addressable display (or ANSI code support or etc) should have a way of turning all that off and printing things a line at a time with no fancy progress bars.

This rant is brought to you by dnf5, but it's not the only offender. At least 'apt' isn't the only way, you can use 'apt-get' and so on.
