Description Tomasz Chrzczonowicz 2009-08-15 19:15:28 UTC
Description of problem:

Dependancies dialog has little space for package list and can't be resized.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

gnome-packagekit.i586 2.27.3-1.fc11

How reproducible:

1. Start gpk-application
2. Select some packages for installation that pull additional dependencies.
3. Click apply
4. Notice that you can propably see only one dependency at a time and can't rezise the dialog window.

Expected results:

The dialog window is resizable and propably it's starting size reflects the number of list of item numbers up to a certain point.

Additional info:

My screen resolution is 1280x800.

Normally it would be bigger, but because your screen s small the window is not made bigger.

Please look at this screenshot. This is far from usable.

Why prevent people from resizing this window?

My screen is not small. It's 15"4 laptop and there's plenty of space to make this window bigger.
