I agree that for me personally the package summary is the most important column. But there were those who insisted that the version number was the most important and that it should get more priority. The version number can grow to insane sizes if package maintainers include Git SHAs and/or timestamps or whatever in it. That is more likely in a view like the "installation summary" because there is simply a much higher number of packages in that list (the column widths are adjusted dynamically). In the first few versions we had completely dynamic column widths, but that means that one single item with excessive width makes the whole column grow out of proportion, so the horizontal scroll bar becomes very wide. If we set a maximum width on such a column (not sure if and how well that works with the current Qt version) that means the user has no way to make the column any wider which is also bad UI behaviour. I agree that the current behaviour is undesirable, but there is no easy solution. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
