[Bug 879959] [NEW] firefox security warning message box too short

 

Public bug reported:

On a fully updated Precise i386 system (obtained by replacing oneiric
with precise in sources.list, dist-upgrading, and rebooting) in a Unity
2D session with a screen resolution of 800x600, firefox
8.0~b4+build1-0ubuntu1 displayed a security warning message box that was
too short. While all the text was visible and the buttons were
sufficiently visible to be fully usable, the message box was visually
displeasing because the lower border of the window was too high, cutting
off the bottom of the button controls that the window contained. This is
illustrated by the attached screenshot.
