Package: synaptic
Version: 0.57.11.1+b1
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
The text in the package description window is set to a fixed width (or line
lenght) of 80 columns.
Maybe this is ok for a console program, but for a GUI program it wastes a lot
of screen space at
small font sizes (in my system a half of the description window is wasted).
Please, don't set the
text to a fixed width, wrap it to the window. Maybe this is not a problem of
synaptic itself,
simply the descriptions are written this way, but they can be easily adapted to
synaptic replacing
\n<letter> with <letter> using a script.
Thanks and greetings
Antonio Regidor García
