Title:
  long descriptions get cut in the middle

Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
  Confirmed
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.
