Bug#283194: vim-gnome: Problem with window resizing on font change

[Andrew Pollock]

Package: vim-gnome
Version: 1:6.3-013+2
Severity: minor

I start up gvim on a file, and I get a horrible gumby double-spaced
font (I can provide a screenshot if desired). The font is Sans 12.

If I change the font (via Edit|Select font...) to say Bitstream Vera
Sans Mono 12, the spacing is better (and the window size changes
accordingly).

If I then change the font back to Sans 12, the window size changes to
totally larger dimensions than the original window when the font was
Sans 12.

Happy to provide screenshots.

regards

Andrew
