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

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

[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.
