** Description changed:
+ [Impact]
+ The config file conflict dialog in update-manager will be only one line high. This essentially just shows the start of the diff making it hard for people to make an informed decision.
+
+ [Test Case]
+ 1) Install artful (so you have updates to install)
+ 2) Modify /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades and set Prompt=never
+ 3) Run update-manager (only install the new update-manager)
+ 4) Observe the config file prompt dialog being 1 line high
+
+ With the version of aptdaemon from -proposed you will see multiple
+ lines.
+
+ [Regression Potential]
+ Little - its a one line patch to to allow the dialog to expand vertically.
+
+ Original Description
+ --------------------
+
This is similar to bug 1623856 regarding the download progress window
only being one line high but the dialog affected is actually the one
that says:
- title = _("Replace your changes in '%s' with a later version of "
- "the configuration file?") % from_path
- msg = _("If you don't know why the file is there already, it is "
- "usually safe to replace it.")
+ title = _("Replace your changes in '%s' with a later version of "
+ "the configuration file?") % from_path
+ msg = _("If you don't know why the file is there already, it is "
+ "usually safe to replace it.")
I've observed this on Ubuntu 17.04 but suspect it also affects Ubuntu
16.10 as the other bug does.
