Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: synaptic

the terminal output window can only be resized to be wider or taller, and once 
done cannot be resized back.
the size persists across invocations; i don't know whether it always behaved 
like this or 
in my case, i mistakenly made it taller than the desktop and now part of it 
sticks in another viewport; the window bounces up and down when clicked to 
allow me clicking the "close" button -- btw, thanks to whoever has been so nice 
to implement this functionality.
i looked for synaptic data files in /root (it's started by gksu) and in my home 
but didn't find anything about the terminal window geometry (but found main 
window geometry). i suppose it's an external "applet" not part of synaptic, any 
hint as where do i find the geometry setting to reset it by hand? 

running Ubuntu 9.10, Synaptic 0.62.5
