The text should be "Revenir en arrière", for "Back"


Actually, this is a problem I've already seen: dialog boxes are not
sized accordingly to buttons width, but only according to the text
inside the dialog box.

So, this problem shows up in all narrow dialog boxes with a "Back" button.

This is then either a cdebconf bug or more probably a bug in the
underlying windowing stuff (newt, I guess).
