[Bug 830933] Re: Who are you: Too much space around username field when 'invalid username' message is displayed

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package ubiquity - 2.9.20

---------------
ubiquity (2.9.20) precise; urgency=low

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Restore old fallback code in case /cdrom/casper/filesystem.size doesn't
    exist (LP: #557388).
  * Fix some more uses of deprecated python-apt APIs.
  * ubiquity-dm: Try openbox after openbox-lubuntu (LP: #888107).
  * Thomson SA is now called Technicolor SA (LP: #856992).
  * Limit maximum length of username editing widgets to 32 (LP: #831319).
  * UTF-8-encode the syslog message when a geoname lookup fails, since it
    might include non-ASCII characters entered by the user (LP: #928891).
  * Run test suite under xvfb-run by default when running it from the
    command line.  'tests/run --no-xvfb' inhibits this behaviour for cases
    where it's useful to see the UIs constructed by the test suite.
  * Stop manually inserting newlines in hostname and username errors.  GTK+
    3 seems to do a reasonable job of wrapping these by itself now.
  * Port the user page from GtkTable to GtkGrid, so that we get sensible
    height-for-width geometry management (LP: #830933).
  * Internationalise hostname and username validation errors (LP: #784825).

  [ Mario Limonciello ]
  * Have two separate failsafe attempts for 'fbdev' and 'vesa'.  It's
    possible that /dev/fb0 will exist but be backed by a VGA framebuffer
    causing X to exit non-zero.

  [ Stéphane Graber ]
  * Use the Xubuntu wallpaper when available. (LP: #936572)
  * Detect bogus DNS servers and ignore them. (LP: #760884)
  * Automatic update of included source packages: base-installer
    1.122ubuntu5, choose-mirror 2.39ubuntu4.

Bug description:
  Oneiric Desktop 20110821
