Installing package A (1/300) downloading packages Installing package B (2/300) Installing package C (3/300) downloading packages which I found quite confusing. Another option is to show package A installed and download on background. And also approach without package names allows us to not change if in future it will be decided to also parallel install ( like e.g. unpack rpm, do some check like file conflicts and other parts that can be done in parallel and maybe call just scripts in serial?). Thanks for feedback Josef
