Just a follow up note, The konsole code was updated to handle the new line escapes that gave me issues when the new escapes were added to pacman. All displays fine, but it would still be nice to have a switch to turn the additional display off. I don't use the total info, just doesn't provide anything that meaningful to use while an update is being applied. Something like --nototal would do. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
