Bug#562233: more details on the widening effect

[Dietmar]

Subject: Re: more details on the widening effect
Package: update-manager-gnome
Version: 0.200.5-1
Severity: normal

When you select a package in the update-manager (Gnome) and then go from
on to
the next e.g. via the arrow-down button, the window occasionally (no
rule
found) widens by about 2-3 mm even beyond the width of the screen.
The window can easily be resized.

Sometimes I have the impression that the window is widened, when the
description is longer than one line and the last word in that line just
not fits.
But as said above, sometimes the descriptions are also very short
(unless they contain plenty of blanks which I cannot verify).
