Bug#31539: apt: Wishlist: x/N status indicator during downloads
Package: apt
Version: 0.1.9
Just a simple wishlist item for the apt download status. It would be
nice if the status showed the number of packages remaining to be
downloaded. The percent indicators are not always a reliable form
of information, escpecially if there are a few large packages as well
as a large number of small packages.
Something like the following with the [x/N] on the end of the Get line,
Get http://debian.midco.net slink/main wget [221k][19/24]
97% [wget 126660/221k 57%] 2863b/s 3m50s
