- Bcc:
this is not essentially a bug as such, but an interface issue that i feel is
pretty important. when selecting which packages in the setup program you
wish to download/install, there is no reference made to how large the
packages are in terms of file size. this makes it a big inconvenience to
those like myself on modem connections where d/l'ing some packages could
take a few hours. in fact, even when downloading commences there is a mere
progress bar indicating how far through the total size of the packages is
complete, rather than the total download size or even the total download
time remaining. this would be really really useful if it could be
implemented, thanks :)
