Sidnei gave me the idea to implement a progress status while downloading packages with setuptools. There is an empty reporthook on package_index.py. If I understood it correctly we could override it to show a progress report while it is downloading a package. The problem is that setuptools don't print directly to the stdout but uses a logging infrastructure (the one from distutils) to print. This way it is impossible for example to print a '.' at each block received (like wget does). I want to know if you guys think this is interesting and if it is, if anyone has any idea on how to do it? -- Leonardo Santagada santagada at gmail.com
