Research direction

Start by reproducing the layout issue in the Updating cache window on Linux Mint 22.1 Cinnamon with version 7.0.7, using the attached screenshot as the visual reference. Trace the window and component sizing behavior; the issue is done when increasing the window height also increases the affected component's height.
