To be honest, usually that information goes too fast, so it is nearly
impossible for me to find something useful there. And, if something
goes wrong, I would expect YaST to notify me about the problem.

I usually find release notes quite useful. If release notes are
informative and well-written, and think it might be a good idea.

+1 to Josef proposal. We could add "remaining time" information but
only if it is kind of accurate. If it is going from 5 minutes, to half
and hour to 1 minute again, then it is better not to show anything.

Yes, please, let's get rid of it.

Thinking a little bit further, would it make sense to unify the
packages installation progress and the finish clients screen into a
single one? After all, we could display a message below the progress
bar ("installing packages", "installing the bootloader", etc.).
What do you think?
