Package: dialog
Version: 1.3-20181022-1
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/dialog
Dear Maintainer,
I notice a new bug, witch wasn't present in older versions of dialog.
From the dialog manual page:
Most widgets accept height and width parameters, which can be used to
automatically size the widget to accommodate multi-line message prompt
values:
· If the parameter is negative, dialog uses the screen's size.
· If the parameter is zero, dialog uses minimum size for the widget to
display the prompt and data.
· Otherwise, dialog uses the given size for the widget.
The current dialog behaves:
zito@bobek:~$ dialog --dselect . 0 0
Can't make new window at (-7,0), size (49,130).
on the current Debian stable (Stretch) with a dialog 1.3-20160828-2 the
directory selection box displays...
Regards
--
Zito
