I realize that I'm a bit late, but I've never been very happy with the resolution to this bug. The fix currently in use breaks when the details expander is opened and then closed again.
The original fix made the window resizable by default with a default_width of 450. But the expander modifies the resizable parameter when its visibility is toggled. Thus, the window reverts to the original, buggy, behavior when the expander is collapsed. I've attached a patch which instead sets a minimum size request of 426 on the progress bar, which produces a window of the same size as with the existing fix. However, this size is enforced when the expander is visible and remains effective after it is collapsed again. Perhaps there is some reason why this isn't a good solution, but I thought I'd suggest it, since it more fully resolves the problem. ** Patch added: "Proposed resolution" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/49042694/synaptic-lp9924.patch -- Window sizing oddities in "Downloading Package Files" status window https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/9924 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
