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
