Public bug reported:

I'm using Ubuntu 15.04 dev with dpkg 1.17.23ubuntu1 and maybe the log on
upgrading a package could be colored for better readability. Here is an
example from an apt log:

Preparing to unpack .../libgudev-1.0-0_1%3a218-5ubuntu2_amd64.deb ...
Unpacking libgudev-1.0-0:amd64 (1:218-5ubuntu2) over (1:218-3ubuntu4) ...


For example the old version could be colored red while the new version could be 
colored green and the name of the package could be bold. Especially if multiple 
packages are getting upgraded like on apt this would make the log easier to 
read if the important informations are highlighted.

** Affects: dpkg (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Package changed: apt (Ubuntu) => dpkg (Ubuntu)
