Comment(by sascha_silbe):

 Replying to [comment:2 walter]:
 > The problem is gtk. I now check for gtk version and if it is 2.16 or
 less, I do not set the label width, reverting back to the occasional
 truncated help strings (which presumably is better than no help strings.)
 With latter gtk versions, the label works as designed.

 It would be nice if you could document your workaround on the
 [https://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Activity_Team/Compatibility_Tips
 Compatibility Tips] wiki page.
