 Installing bigger Distributions, like texlive_texmf-full (>125MB), I was
 wondering if everything is allright after some minutes of nothingness. I
 know that other *nix-packet-managers have a progressbar (some dots or
 whatever) so that the user is able to track the progress, at least having
 an idea if everything is allright.

 Since now I know I just have to wait, everything is fine for me. Thinking
 of other users - they would sometimes appreciate to have a progressbar
 when installing using port, I suppose. Thinking of gentoo-users sitting
 next to me, I would appreciate that anyway ;)
