Description Christian Buchinger 2018-10-18 13:50:05 UTC

When a bug summary contains longish substrings, like URLs or package names, the bug list table overflows its container/the viewport even on 1200+ px window width.

It bothered me to scroll sideways all the time so I made a quick fix in css to allow wrapping and prevent scrolling, at least down to around 1000px.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Point browser to buglist like https://bugs.gentoo.org/buglist.cgi?chfieldfrom=24h
2. Shrink browser window width to something around 1000px
Actual Results:  
The table width exceeds the viewport forcing horizontal scrolling.

Expected Results:  
Wrap long words in the summary fields to prevent horizontal scroll.

I also added a media query to shrink the assignee fields and the "Resolution" heading. This gives the summary a bit more room.
