Bug#562233: Patch to solve the widening effect

[David Westberg]

Package: update-manager-gnome
Version: 0.200.5-1
Severity: normal

Problem seems to be related to the Changes and Description information tabs.

The text presented makes them grow because there is no restriction in the GUI
fields to limit this. GUI tries to put Description on one long row.

Supplied patch will limit this behaviour by restricting growth to vertical by
adding a Horisontal scrollbar if required.
