Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: debmirror
The debmirror man page has these two options described:
--verbose -v
Displays progress between file downloads.
--progress -p
Displays progress bars as files are downloaded.
I've tried -v -p, as well as just -p, but there are no "progress
bars". I assume progress bars are something akin to wget's verbose/
progress bars output - this is what I want to see, because sometimes
say a 58MB samba-dbg file is downloading, and I want to stop it for
some reason, and I want to stop it in-between downloads, and I can't
see the progress of each file, which would be better than seeing
nothing for a long time, waiting for that file to end, before CTRL-C,
or else, just doing CTRL-C straight away, and hoping that I haven't
wasted my bandwidth (eg since file was only 50% downloaded, the MD5
checks will cause it to be downloaded again...).
Am I doing something wrong, are there really progress bars somewhere?
or is the documentation/ man page wrong - there's no progress bars?
Thanks
