[Bug 1847479] Re: update-manager window expands off-screen (which effectively stops distribution upgrade)

[arQon]

I wonder what the thought process was that led to disabling user resize
of this window in the first place. As with the absence of the other
window controls there's no reason for it at all, and simply not doing so
would have prevented this bug from being application-breaking.

Title:
  update-manager window expands off-screen (which effectively stops
  distribution upgrade)

Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Attempted to update to Ubuntu 19.10 using:
  update-manager -d

  Update-manager asks "Do you want to start the upgrade?" and summarizes
  packages to be removed/downloaded.

  Clicking to show the details expands the window beyond the size of my
  screen (1280x800) so that I can't access the "Start Upgrade" button,
  effectively stopping the upgrade.
