It appears that this bug report actually describes two separate bugs. # 1. The "... three blank lines between the question text and the question itself..." # 2. The "... the multiselect part of the question..." displayed out of bounds.
The trigger of #1 is more than one space at the last line of the description. It can be seen in Portuguese version of these questions, where the translator used tabs instead of spaces. This seems to be a bug in the debconf parsing mechanism and not the front-end, as it's apparent also in the GUI front-end though not as obvious. In general debconf doesn't deal gracefully with whitespace at line's beginning, either space or tab. It seems unrelated to #2 which is manifested whenever the description exceeds a certain number of lines while still below a complete page. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
