- an additional progress bar is added to track total download progress.
This replaces the previous TotalDownload option.
It's not precisely new, but it used to be you needed to opt into it
because if you did, you lost the per-package download progress.
A great new feature for some... but a bug to another if it can't be turned off
to restore previous behavior.
from man pacman :
NoProgressBar
Disables progress bars. This is useful for terminals which
do not support escape characters.
The progressbar was redesigned (and became opt-out ) to work with
paralllel downloads .
If you really want previous behaviour you should also disable parallel
downloads .
