Description Harald Sitter 2016-11-08 08:38:53 UTC
When the backend needs to remove a package as part of the upgrade a dialog comes up asking for approval.

This dialog uses the title bar as part of the window saying nothing more than "Remove..." the window lists packages.

This dialog offers insufficient context, it shouldn't use the title bar and maybe try forming a proper sentence that the user can give an informed Y/N answer to.

Best run this ugly thing by the VDG really.
