The problem still exists in the current Ubuntu Bionic (October 24,
2019):
dreibh@kringsjaa:~$ pip3 list --outdated
DEPRECATION: The default format will switch to columns in the future. You can
use --format=(legacy|columns) (or define a format=(legacy|columns) in your
pip.conf under the [list] section) to disable this warning.

Since finding outdated packages is security-relevant, I would consider
this bug being security-relevant as well.
