Description Forgotten User b49zM5D78q 2009-02-09 09:58:32 UTC 
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.6) Gecko/2009012700 SUSE/3.0.6-1.4 Firefox/3.0.6

There is a small, uncritical problem in the YaST GUI during software installations:
The label "Remaining" showing the installation size of the remaining packages is updated to the really current value always after the next package to the remaining size of the current package, not immediately after installing the current one.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Want to install three packages A (20MB), B (10MB), C (5MB).
2. Start YaST Software installation, mark them and launch installing

Actual Results:  
- Start: Remaining (still not shown from the beginning): 35 MB
- Finished installing A - Remaining: 35 MB
- Finished installing B - Remaining: 15 MB
- Finished installing C - Remaining: 5 MB

Expected Results:  
- Start: Remaining (should be shown immediately, why not?): 35 MB
- Finished installing A - Remaining: 15 MB
- Finished installing B - Remaining: 5 MB
- Finished installing C - Remaining: 0 MB

Note: I watched this again: The label updates already after downloading the next packages (not installing), but should be updated already before the next download, shouldn't it?
Comment 2 Ladislav Slezák 2009-03-10 14:56:25 UTC 
Yes, but the problem is that from some media types (e.g. DVD) the packages are not downloaded but used directly. Simply moving the update to download would break DVD installation, the label must be updated exactly once.
Comment 3 Forgotten User hUuhPOuRYn 2009-04-18 11:22:25 UTC 
notice that progressBar updates correctly.
it seems that label is just using wrong [old] variable
Comment 4 Forgotten User b49zM5D78q 2009-05-19 09:23:01 UTC 
Yes, the problem is only with the label.
The explanation above isn't understandable to me. This is a functional bug, regardless whether this can be easily fixed or not, isn't it?
Comment 5 Ladislav Slezák 2009-05-19 11:13:23 UTC 
The comment #2 is rather a notice for me not to forget to check it also with DVD media, they use slightly different order of callbacks.
Comment 6 Forgotten User b49zM5D78q 2009-05-19 11:20:27 UTC 
Oh I see, sorry. As if it wasn't me who said this ;-)
Comment 7 Carlo Strata 2009-06-05 11:53:03 UTC 
I confirm the behavior:

- the global bar is correctly updated (simply after each package install complete)

- the "Remaining" label (byte size) updates lately after downloading the next packages (not too correct instant)

Why not to move the second update (remaining) in the same place where the first happens?

Carlo

p.s. I have verified this only in the Gnome "yast2 --install" application.

Fixed in yast2-packager-2.20.10 (Factory/11.4-M3, OBS YaST:Head) - "remaining" label is now updated when package installation is finished.
