It is better to send you my current regular expressions. :-)

^\w{3} [ :[:digit:]]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ cron-apt: Get:[[:digit:]]+ ((ht|f)tp|file)://[.[:alnum:]/_-]+ [./[:alnum:]-]+ [-[:alnum:]_+.]+ [+.:~[:alnum:]-]+ \[[.[:digit:]]+ *[kMGTPEZY]?B\]$
^\w{3} [ :[:digit:]]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ cron-apt: Need to get [[:digit:].]+ *([kMGTPEZY]?B)(/[.[:digit:]]+ *([kMGTPEZY]?B))* of archives\.$
^\w{3} [ :[:digit:]]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ cron-apt: After this operation, [.[:digit:]]+ *[kMGTPEZY]?B (of additional disk space will be used|disk space will be freed)\.$
^\w{3} [ :[:digit:]]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ cron-apt: After unpacking [[:digit:].]+ *([kMGTPEZY]?B) (of additional disk space will be used|disk space will be freed)\.$
^\w{3} [ :[:digit:]]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ cron-apt: Del [-[:alnum:]_+.]+ \[[.[:digit:]]+ *[kMGTPEZY]?B\]$
^\w{3} [ :[:digit:]]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ cron-apt: Fetched [[:digit:].]+ *[kMGTPEZY]?B in ((([[:digit:]]+ *d )?[[:digit:]]+ *h ?)?[[:digit:]]+ *m(in)? ?)?[[:digit:]]+s \([[:digit:].]+ *[kMGTPEZY]?B/s\)$

The matter: they allow optional spaces between value and unit.
Attention. Some log lines contain more than one measurements. E.g.
... Fetched 387 kB in 6 d 18 min (1.3 B/s)
