Severity: important

The profile question in Debian Edu/Lenny do not look good.  The
multiselect question do not select all the four options, but only the
first three and a scroll bar, while the display have three blank lines
between the question text and the question itself.

See the attached image d-i-edu-danish-profile.png for an example.
This is the normal profile question in the debian-edu-install package.

The expert question have more options, and look even worse.  Here, the
text fill the entire screen, and instead of moving the multiselect
part of the question to another screen (which is done when not using
"preformattet" text), it display the question at the lower end, on top
of/below the button <continue> button.  See the attached image
d-i-edu-english-profile-expert.png.

The expert profile question is not usable (not able to see properly
the options to select them), while the normal profile is just
confusing to users.  Because of this, I set severity to important.

Happy hacking,

Changes: 
 cdebconf (0.138lenny3) stable; urgency=low
 .
   [ Nicolas François ]
   * src/template.c (remove_newlines): Fix the removal of trailing
     newline for descriptions ending with a verbatim block. This helps
     optimizing the screen usage in the newt frontend.
   * Fix the computation and usage of the window's height. If the height is not
     computed correctly, the newt frontend may decide to put the input box and
     the explanatory text on the same window, but the text will overlap on the
     input box, which renders the input impossible.
     Closes: #508042, #507372, #343119
   * Optimize the screen usage (2 lines) in the newt frontend when a
     description and select menu are on the same windows or when a big select
     menu is displayed on its own window.
   * Fix select screens with the newt frontend. The <Go Back> button was not
     taken into account and overlapped with the select list. Closes: #525209
