Steam client version (build number or date): 1571182697
Distribution (e.g. Ubuntu): Debian Sid
Opted into Steam client beta?: [Yes/No] Yes
Have you checked for system updates?: [Yes/No] Yes
Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:
When the steam client detects that a new version of itself is available, it pops up a window to alert the user.
For the last few versions, that window has been tiny (128 pixels wide x 66 pixels high) and therefore unreadable and useless - it's not even big enough to show the buttons, let alone the update news. BTW, the window is not resizable, either.
If I close that useless window and click on the Steam -> Check for Steam Client Updates menu option, I get the same window but with usable geometry (460x518).
Steps for reproducing this issue:
wait for steam client to detect new version
???
profit
PS: it would be useful if the About Steam dialog box contained copy-able text fields, so that the build date and/or version number could be copy-pasted into Issues here, rather than an error-prone re-typing by fallible humans. I know this is unusual in Windows, but it's standard and expected on Linux. Dialog text that you can't copy-paste into, e.g., a google search is useless for, e.g., diagnostic purposes.
