Package: gnome-packagekit
Version: 3.14.0-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainer,

the tool show a progress bar related to the current download. Debian and linux
in general a made of many small modules whose download doesn't take a lot of
time. So the progress bar is frenetically reset. The label at the right just
shows 'Downloading packages' which is also not very informative.

I think the progress bar should be related to the whole activity. So, if I have
to download hundreds of packages, it should give in percentage how many have
been already downloaded. Besides the label should report the package currently
downloading.

On the whole, the tool should be at least as much informative as the aptitude
command line is.

Another improvement would be to show a specific icon for each package if they
have one (they should), instead of a dumb list of boxes.

Thanks,
Carlo.
