[Bug 1623856] Re: Scrolled Windows in update-manager are too small to read

@flexiondotorg I've heard back from the original aptdaemon maintainer.
aptdaemon is removed from Debian unstable, and lp:aptdaemon is probably
in no good shape for release.  The maintainer has essentially orphaned
the package.

So I think if this is to be applied and uploaded, it should be done
against source branches in Ubuntu.  You have the bug assigned to
yourself, so unless I hear otherwise, I'll assume that you're going to
take care of it.  But please do let me know if you need any help.

Thanks!

Title:
  Scrolled Windows in update-manager are too small to read

Status in aptdaemon package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in aptdaemon source package in Yakkety:
  Confirmed
Status in update-manager source package in Yakkety:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]

    * Expanding the scrolled windows for download progress or technical
  details in update-manager are just one line high, making them
  unreadable.

  [ Test Case ]

    * Install Ubuntu 16.10 final or 17.04 daily.
    * Open update-manager and wait for it to refresh.
    * Expand the technical details, you'll see the scrolled window is just one line high. (This exercises update-manager)
    * Install the updates, expand the Details while updates are downloaded.  Again you'll see the scrolled window is just one line high. (This exercises aptdaemon.gtk3widgets)

  After installing the patched aptdaemon and update-manager packages
  following the same steps will result in both scrolled windows
  defaulting to several lines of readable output.

  [ Regression Potential ]

    * None.
    * racb: a mistake in the patch could cause the window appearance to screw up in some other way.
