  Title: YaST Textmode: Display Release Notes
   
  openSUSE-11.2: Evaluation
  Priority
      Requester: Desirable
      Projectmanager: Desirable
   
  Requested by: Karl Eichwalder (keichwa)
   
Description:
  In YaST ncurses UI, even if the screen is large (more than 100
  characters), do not use more than 79/80 width for displaying the frame
  containing the release notes text.
  Lines longer than 80 characters are hard to read.

  I have discussed with Karl. The problem also exits for Qt. Therefore a
  change in YCP layout is necessary. I have attached a suggestion for a
  layout change in inst_release_notes.ycp. I have used `Empty and
  `HWeight to add a margin at the left and right side of the text. This
  approach works for Qt and ncurses. Karl agrees that a stretchable text
  (width changes depending on total size) is better than a fix width.

  Thanks, Gabi!

  Yes, at least, it looks better for normal use cases. The patch will
  probably improve the readability for most users.

  Added attachment patch for inst_release_notes.ycp (HWeight.diff)
