Bug#452794: packages.debian.org: Unnecessary horizontal scrollbar
Package: www.debian.org
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
The top navigation bar in packages.d.o is always larger than the screen (no
matter what resolution) in most browsers. This makes browsers display a
quite useless (and annoying IMHO) horizontal scrollbar.
This might seem related to #375705, but this bug only applies to
packages.d.o. Also, I used Browsershots[1] to reproduce the problem, and the
horizontal scrollbar is displayed in all browsers except Epiphany 2.14 and
IE 5.5. The screenshots are available here[2].

To fix the problem, I simply removed «width: 100%» from pnavbar in
packages.css(.sed.in). And, as you can see in this example[3] and the
screenshots[4], the result looks OK.
