too many licenses =S (79.40 KB, image/png)

too many licenses =S

In Fedora 18 it's not possible to Remove Package, Visit Project Website, view Files, or view Required/Dependent Packages on certain packages without unmaximizing the window and pulling it offscreen to the left. This is because impressively huge license text will push those buttons offscreen on my 1366x768 laptop.

It's also impossible to maximize the window after it's been unmaximized when displaying such a package; to maximize the window again you must view a package with a shorter license.

In Fedora 18, you can see this with texlive packages and others...

How about these fixes: (1) You can set the GTK label to "ellipsize" long text.  (2) Or move the license information to be additional text in the description text field.

See the Fedora bug report https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=875719
