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

[Brian Murray]

It should be fixed in Ubuntu 17.04. Maybe you could provide some details
about which particular bug (technical details vs download [read the
description]) you are experiencing and the version of the affected
packages (aptdaemon and update-manager) you have installed.

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.
    * Select an update from the "Details of updates" section
    * Then expand the "Technical description", you'll see the scrolled window is just one line high. (This exercises update-manager)
    * Choose to install an update, preferably a large one, and click "Install"
    * While the update(s) are downloading click the "Details" expander
    * You'll see the scrolled window is just one line high. (This exercises aptdaemon)

  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.
