Description Joseph Shraibman 2002-10-30 22:51:23 EST

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020826

Description of problem:
During package choosing in text mode the user is forced to use a little box with
a tree menu. There is much screen real estate that is unused. It is not necc. to
make the user press f2 to get a package description since there is enough space
for at least a short description.

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


How reproducible:
Always

Comment 1 Michael Fulbright 2002-10-31 12:44:34 EST

We do not plan on investing in the text mode interface at this time.

Comment 2 Joseph Shraibman 2002-10-31 16:02:46 EST

You could at least make sure it uses all the vertial real estate for browsing
the tree in the scroll box. That should be a trivial change.
