Description David Lawrence 2002-04-19 16:57:56 UTC 
Description of Problem: 
Japanese text mode install over PCMCIA HTTP. 
When asking whether I want the installer to remove all current partitions 
during the auto-partition screen, I choose YES. I then get the next screen 
which is the confirmation screen. There are Japanese characters overlapping 
the border of the popup window and the characters to the right on the previous 
screen underneath become ramdom garbage. If I choose NO on the confirmation  
screen the popup windows disappears and the previous text is once again 
readable.

Comment 1 Eido Inoue 2003-01-03 20:54:03 UTC 
This should be fixed with the latest version of newt (0.51.2-1) (which checks
the width of the multibyte chars correctly).
