Package: aptitude Version: 0.6.8.2-1 Severity: minor Problem: the time estimation of remaining seconds shown at the right during aptitude update differs from that shown during aptitude safe-upgrade.
The former is per-line, and the latter is per-whole-upgrade (or maybe per-upstream-server?!*). Naturally the latter method is preferred, lest one tell one's boss "Oh, only two minutes left", when that is merely for this line, and he will be waiting downstairs much longer than that! Now of course one could say one cannot estimate for more than one upstream server at a time due to ... ... *Anyway perhaps prefix the time estimate with the server name so it is clear what is going on. Anyway this all needs to be made unambiguous to somebody watching it tick along. _______________________________________________ Aptitude-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/aptitude-devel
