That really would be better. Hopefully we can get our hooks into
RubyGems a bit more in the future to let us show progress in greater
detail. I even wish we could show progress of downloading each gem
with some sort of granularity.
Well, just resurfaced from tracking the setup code :)
I guess at the present time there is not much we can do.
The gem step in the setup launches Gem::DependencyInstaller and there is
not much we can do past that point as everything is done by this class.
Maybe a patch to make DependencyInstaller observable?
Would that be a viable/acceptable solution for the Gem team you think?
I mean we could just patch the Gem distribution included with Shoes
without demanding that gem includes it...although upgrades will probably
be a pain.
Cheers,
