Description
When installing a package with dependencies, and particularly when upgrading the base system made up of dozens of packages, the progress bar appears to dance around wildly. This is because it indicates the progress of whatever individual operation is going on at the time (package download, installation, etc.), and the smoothing keeps it from doing even that usefully.
Instead, it should show the overall progress of the running operation, so when it reaches the end, the user has assurance that the installation is complete.
