Anaconda suggestion...

Hello,
So I'm in the process of upgrading (using preupgrade) from F13 to
F14, something I typically do around the RC phase, anyway, that's
beside the point. All the packages have been installed, but I'm at the
point where I get "Finishing upgrade process. This may take a little
while" and a 'progress indicator' on crack. It flies around quickly back
and forth for a bit, pauses, then flies around some more. Here's my
suggestion. It would be great if this dialog could be a little more
specific about what it is doing. I'm guessing that since I'm doing an
upgrade this box is running all the post-update scripts and as such
can't give a proper progressbar as it doesn't know how long it will
take. That's fine. However its been running for nearly as long as it
took to 'install' the 2089 packages that got upgraded/installed. If it
is doing the cleanup/post upgrade package script thing, even just doing
something similar to PK where it shows which package is doing what. I
don't know if it is feasible, but it would be nice to know what is going
on...
If the anaconda developers think this is valid or useful I can file a
bug, I just thought I'd bring it up here first...
Thanks,
