Description Walter Leibbrandt 2008-10-10 17:21:03 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
Given a multi-line comment for a standard gtk.AboutDialog via the set_comments() method, the text does not wrap correctly and gets cut off.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a gtk.AboutDialog
2. Pass a suitable string to the dialog's set_comments() method
3. Show dialog

Actual results:
The comment-string is cut off at the right, indicating faulty wrapping.

Expected results:
The comment-string should be correctly wrapped and not cut off.

Does this happen every time?
Yes

Other information:
This may very well be a gtk+ bug and not a pygtk bug, but that could not be confirmed.

The last word on the second line of the second paragraph should be "general" not "gene". The word "or" is also missing from the end of the first line of the second paragraph.

Doesn't seem PyGTK-specific to me.
