Bug#243085: back button looks out of place



Package: cdebconf
Severity: normal
Tags: d-i

Without a continue button displayed any more, the back button looks out
of place on the left hand side of select and string input dialog boxes.
It made sense to put the back button on the left when the continue was
on the right, to imply a left/right movement between pages. Without the
continue button, this placement does not make sense. It looks awkward.

I think it would be better to still display the continue button if the
back button is displayed. Only if there is no back button, the continue
button can also be left off.

IIRC, that addresses the original problem that led to the removal of the
continue buttons -- that a continue button looked awkward at the bottom
of a select list, if it was the only button displayed.

Note that there is also a drawing glitch on select list dialogs, if
there is no back button. The select list stops several lines from the
bottom of the dialog, even though there are no buttons at the bottom.
