AlertDialog buttons doesn't fit in dialog box on Android 5.0

[Bersh]

I've noticed that on Android 5.0 buttons in AlertDialog doesn't fit in dialog box. Similar problem described here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26708976/alert-dialog-buttons-problems-in-android-l
Unfortunately I don't have solution for this except of using custom layout for AlertDialog.

Here is few examples how does the problem looks like:

Any fix for this issue?

Sorry for the delay.
May be this is the default requirements of the android framework.
If you want to solve the problem, you can set buttonBarButtonStyle in your theme to point to a style that extends Widget.Material.Button.Borderless.Colored and adds whatever attributes you need.

<resources>
    <style name="AppBaseTheme" parent="android:Theme.Material.Light">
        <!-- AlertDialog Style override in order to try to fix non line breaking buttons -->
        <item name="android:alertDialogTheme">@style/CustomAlertDialogStyle</item>
    </style>  

    <style name="CustomAlertDialogStyle" parent="android:Theme.Material.Light.Dialog.Alert">
        <item name="android:buttonBarButtonStyle">@style/CustomButtonBarButtonStyle</item>
        <item name="android:buttonBarStyle">@style/CustomButtonBarStyle</item>
    </style>

    <style name="CustomButtonBarStyle" parent="@android:style/Widget.Material.Light.ButtonBar.AlertDialog">
        <!-- Making sure, the button bar uses parent width and is not restricted in height -->
        <item name="android:layout_width">match_parent</item>
        <item name="android:layout_height">wrap_content</item>
        <item name="android:height">@null</item>
        <item name="android:minHeight">@null</item>
    </style>

    <style name="CustomButtonBarButtonStyle" parent="@android:style/Widget.Material.Light.Button.Borderless.Colored">
        <!-- Setting the weight as follows should result in equally wide buttons filling the alert dialog width,
            but instead they span further out of the dialog, breaking in multiple lines though -->
        <item name="android:layout_width">0dp</item>
        <item name="android:layout_weight">1</item>
        <!-- setting a fixed width as follows results in narrow buttons with line breaks, but of course this is not a solution -->
        <!-- <item name="android:width">100dp</item> -->
    </style>

</resources>
