Download progress has no ETA

[Tim Penhey]

software-center 5.0.2

Downloading a large package in an airport lounge, it isn't entirely clear how long it is going to take.

Downloaded X of Y is all I get. An ETA would be very nice.

<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareCenter#progress>: "The “Progress” section ... should be based on a software item list view, with these differences: * the second row of text is the task status text, rather than the package summary or package name..."

<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwarePackageOperations#general>: "Whenever the task involves downloading any software, the status text should be: * “Downloaded {amount} of {total} ({rate}, {period} remaining)” if the download rate is stable and the estimated time remaining is more than 30 seconds, for example “Downloaded 15.6 MB of 131.0 MB (20 KB/s, 6 minutes remaining)”..."

Hi Tim, thanks, this seems like a great idea. I have set this as a wishlist item so that we can track it when planning/implementing enhancements and new features. I have also set it as triaged since I think we have enough information to move to the next step, which is to do the details UI design.

Many thanks for your help!
