When installing updates/packages the installer Window is constantly resizing to fit the name of the packages.

However, this makes it extremely difficult to use the "Hide" and "Cancel" buttons, and looks messy as well to the user.

Proposed solution #1
- Make a static sized window

Proposed solution #2
- Left-align the "Hide" and "Cancel" buttons, next to the "Details" button.

Which package manager are you using?

this is a dupe of one of my own ideas AND i was told this is a kubuntu related problem - therefore no KDE idea...

im not sure but i think in 10.04 this behaviour changed already.


Kubuntu 12.04 x64 | KDE SC 4.8
