[Bug 589941] Re: Incorrect status of downloaded bytes while upgrading

[Sytse Sijbrandij]

I hope people don't mind me adding that it would be great if this bug
was solved. At GitLab we have large packages and this bug causes
confusion https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/omnibus-gitlab/issues/1175 If a
bug bounty would help we'd be happy to provide it.

Title:
  Incorrect status of downloaded bytes while upgrading

Status in Aptdaemon:
  Fix Released
Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Distribution
  ========
  OS Description: Ubuntu maverick (development branch)
  Release: 10.10-alpha1-amd64
  System Architecture: amd64

  Package
  ======
  aptdaemon
  Version: 0.31+bzr412-0ubuntu1

  Bug Description
  ============
  When the update manager starts to "update", i.e. starts to download packages, it shows incorrect status. 

  Once a particular package (lets say of size N kB) has been downloaded,
  the progress bar corresponding to it reflects the status correctly
  showing 100%. However, the textfield beside the proogressbar shows
  "Downloaded 0B of N kB" which is evidently incorrect. This is
  conspicuous in the attached screenshot.
