Package: iptotal
Version: 0.3.3-6
Severity: minor

iptotal prints things like this:

Total: 12.48 kBytes/s In: 12.48 Kbytes/s Out: 0.00 Kbytes/s

Notice some places it's "kBytes", others it's "Kbytes". This should at
the very least be consistant.

Technically, they are both wrong. The following are all correct
according to normal SI rules:
  * kilobytes
  * kbytes
  * kB

But, "kBytes" would be fine too, because:
  1) It matches the generated CHARTS which use "kByte".
  2) It uses the correct SI prefix symbol for kilo: lowercase 'k'.
  3) The symbol for bytes is 'B', thus kBytes is understandable enough.

Anyway, the bottom line is, please fix this to be CONSISTANT. It would
be an added bonus if it was also CORRECT. =)
