Currently we leave the screen blank and keep trying when a retrieve of a file fails over FTP or HTTP. We log something to VC3 but the user will think their machine hung. We need to give a progress/info dialog instead.
It'd be *really* nice to have a status bar showing the percent each file is downloaded, as there was with the old 6.x installer. This'd require a change to RPM though -- I don't think there's a callback for that....
Similar to another request. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 86350 ***
The other bug is just a warning-when-retrying, right? Not a full progress bar....
Changed to 'CLOSED' state since 'RESOLVED' has been deprecated.
