Abhijit just wants to know the "download" size it will take to re-install all the installed packages.
<AbhiJit> vish, because i need to reinstall ubuntu. and i have generated automatic installl script. but problem is my net speed. so when i wll be inside my new clean install i want to see total of how much time it is going to take so that i can leave lappy for that much time and go to other work
If the properties for all the packages selected was displayed , it would probably solve this bug.
The problem here is, Synaptic is able to display the download size for each package , but when we select two or more packages only the properties for the last package is displayed. This might be a separate bug? But, fixing this select could address this issue.
