During Patchdownload progress log does´nt show the download progress

It would be fine YaST could show the download progress. If you download a bigger Patch (Kernel by example) absolutely no information is shown about the download progress. What if the system hangs? The user should have more comfort in this case.
I hope it will be addresses in 10.1. But, there will be situatrions which we cannot solve - scripts which download eg. NVidia drivers. We cannot get any info about proress of general script.
Stefan, is this covered in the GUI?
Not in my part of the GUI anyway. There probably are some callbacks that are called during dowload, very much like during an FTP installation. IIRC there are popups with progress bars for each package that is downloaded. If that works in that case, it should work with patches, too. But I have no clue who maintains the YCP part of the online update now to check this.
The callbacks already exist. Jiri, please, check possibilities to add more detailed progress reporting to UI...
AFAIK there are only callbacks for packages, not for patches, scripts etc. Stano, will we have any new callbacks?
The file download callbacks should be invoked for any download AFAIK. Just for packages the callbacks are special. The rest of the files should invoke the generic file callbacks.
But the other ones are off now, because some other bug (it was on you AFAIK)...?
