[Desktop-packages] [Bug 902095] Re: Copying remaining time estimate is not accurate when doing multiple copies
Is that still an issue in newer Ubuntu versions? ** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/902095 Title: Copying remaining time estimate is not accurate when doing multiple copies Status in Nautilus: Confirmed Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: When you copy two files (or two set of files) from or to the same disk separately, so that you have two copying progress bars and estimates and one copying process is dealing with an amount of data larger than the other, nautilus calculates the estimate as if both copying processes were going to be running simultaneously until copying is complete, which is not true.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 902095] Re: Copying remaining time estimate is not accurate when doing multiple copies
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME. If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status.
