in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See

to enable and use -proposed.Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to

  Scrolled Windows in update-manager are too small to read

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.
