[Bug 532072] Re: long descriptions get cut in the middle

 

Hi,
This is still true in Oneiric.
For example if you want to see the description of LibreOffice in the french version, you have to expand the window !
This is not very convenient and it might be good to correct this for the LTS.

Title:
  long descriptions get cut in the middle

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: software-center

  Very long descriptions of packages get cut in the middle, giving a
  very weird effect. Like the package Gshutdown when software center is
  not maximised:

  And advanced shutdown utility which allows you to...le the shutdown or
  the restart of your computer.

  I would be better if this was to be split over several lines or capped
  at the end instead of the middle.
