Does anyone know if it is possible to make the default screen

Install screen, I would like the Package Name column to be wider,

there was a way to specify the width of the column, or make the
entire screen wider, either of those solutions would work.
No, there isn't.
Also, does anyone know a trick to have it display a specific size of
the install rather than having the installer determine the size
automatically. For example, if a user installs the program, then
deletes it, and then reinstalls later, it is still listed as an
"upgrade" with "size 0". Of course if I delete the receipt after
installation it would act as a fresh install next time, but I have
previously been advised not to use a script to delete receipts.
The size calculations use receipts to decide, in interests of speed.
Obviously, receipts often do not represent the actual state of the
disk, so, alas, this calculation can easily be wrong.
