Public bug reported:

Affects: gtk+2.0 (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: Medium
         Status: Confirmed


Description:
I'm using Breezy Colony 3 and have the Application Font set to Bitstream Vera
San (Roman) size 16. Using this large font forces Synaptic dialog windows to be
larger. The problem is that the text labels within those windows do not expand
to fill the width of the windows. This makes the text look unusual when it is
wrapping at half the width of the window. This occurs in at least the following
Synaptic dialogs and perhaps others:
-Mark additional required changes
-Summary
-Applying Changes
-Changes Applied

When the text displayed is longer than the width of the dialog window, it should
wrap at the end of the window instead of at some arbitrary point in the middle
of the window.
