Looks like a newt bug, try whiptail --yesno 'Foo' 7 20 --title 'This is a long title' The title does not accept embedded newlines, so I am afraid that the only option for cdebconf is to shorten titles with ellipsis. Do you want so, or should this bugreport be reassigned to newt? Denis -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
