Bug Description
<nessita> mvo: why we need to wait for the queued tasks to finish in order to install swordandfoo?
<mvo> nessita: the apt backend works sequential, it will work on the queue one by one. there is a long standing open bug about download in parallel, but that is currently not implemented and its not that trivial (but it would be really great to have)
nessita: woah, thanks, I can reproduce
<nessita> mvo: ah! so indeed, a proper message would do wonders there
<nessita> like the waiting + clarification on each queued task, plus a "big" global legend saying that the tasks will be processed sequentially
