[Bug 842830] [NEW] Installation/removal status text isn't shown in list view

 

Public bug reported:

software-center trunk r2261, Ubuntu 11.10 beta 1

1. Navigate to a list view, such as the search results for "editor".
2. Select an item, and click "Install" or "Remove" in the list.

What happens:
* A progress bar appears in the list view.
* The line of text below the software title does not change.

What should happen:
* The item summary is temporarily replaced by status text: "Waiting", "Downloaded 3.0 of 14.7 MB", "Installing", and so on.

<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareCenter#software-list-view>: "When an
item is being installed, being removed, having its add-ons changed, or
queued for any of those tasks ... the secondary text for the row should
be the status text for the task, instead of the item’s summary."

** Affects: software-center (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Low
         Status: New

** Changed in: software-center (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided => Low
