Title:
  Software Updater console panel height only shows one line

Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When using Software Updater, you can view details of an update in progress.
  By clicking the expander arrow, a console panel should appear, and the Software Updater windows expands in order to show the full multi-line console.

  However, the console panel is only one character high.
  The rest of the window below the console is simply gray (or whatever your theme shows as a background color).

  The console appears as a black bar, and you can see some flashes of
  text as the update proceeds.

  This was an issue in Ubuntu 16.10, 17.04 and now 17.10 as well.

  Please note that I am using Liberaton Mono 9 font as my mono-spaced
  font.  (However, since Updater runs with root privileges, I have noted
  in the past that the font used is the standard system mono-spaced
  font, not the user specified font, so this may not have relevance to
  this issue).

  I suspect this has something to do with the gtk library that is used
  to render the console window in update-manager.  The frame, that the
  console sits in, may need to be set to "expand" when vertical space is
  available.

  Also note, that I experienced this issue using Xorg.
