Bug Description

apport 1.94.1-0ubuntu2, Ubuntu 12.04 beta 1

When an application that has crashed has a short name, like "Inkscape", the "The application ... has closed unexpectedly" alert as a whole is only 146 pixels high. This looks odd.

This is another of those things that would happen automatically if there was an automatic API for creating alerts, but ... probably all the error tracker alerts should have a minimum height of about 200 pixels.

Not trivial to leave a window non-resizable but with a minimum size (set_default_size() does not work on non-resizable windows), so I'm not fixing this right away.
