[Abhijit Navale]

Binary package hint: synaptic

This is a wishlist.
I want to see the size of the 'all' currently installed packages at once in synaptic.

Need:
 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

e..g if i have package a and package b installed.
size of package a is 20 mb and of b is 30 mb
then i want to see then in my system all total of 50mb of packages are installed.

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.
