The downloader is written using a well-exercised python library; it's unlikely to have bugs that cause hangs due to slow servers. Obviously if the server is *slow*, it will take a long time to download the data, and there'll be no feedback in the GUI while this is happening, but that's nothing new.
When the hang happens, are you able to pull up the terminal showing the package progress? Is it possible you just didn't wait long enough for the download to finish from the really slow server? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/984373 Title: update-notifier setup hangs during installation of Precise with ubiquity To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-notifier/+bug/984373/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
