Well, ideally we want the percentage, sub-percentage, status, what we've
done, what we are doing now and the allow-cancel status. But that's a
lot of information. Maybe:

Status:   Downloading [Can cancel]
Package:  gnome-power-manager
Complete: [#########             ]
Part:     [#################     ]
