Migration to new format gives no feedback

evolution-2.91.5-4.fc15.x86_64 Evolution seems to be doing something, because it's still running: $ ps aux | grep evolution hadess 1814 0.0 0.2 520724 9372 ? SLl 14:38 0:00 /usr/libexec/evolution/2.92/evolution-alarm-notify hadess 2617 42.4 11.8 1335924 471608 ? Sl 14:45 14:35 evolution But it gives me absolutely no feedback during the migration, such as how much time is left before the mail is migrated, or whether there's any errors. It also showed up as "not running" in gnome-shell's task/dock bar because no windows were visible.
Created attachment 180453 [details] [review] Patch for showing the progress bar Calling up progress like the way its being done in migrate_to_db. Also done the rendering changes. as desc and progress bar were getting displayed twice.

Review of attachment 180570 [details] [review]: The complete patch is messed up. The progress should be shown while folders are being migrated from mbox to maildir. The progress string is wrong. Please provide an updated patch correcting the same asap
Created attachment 181821 [details] [review] Patch for showing the proper progress bar Reworked on comments. Changed the String. Updating progress bar as per each folder getting copied.

Anyone upgrading from 2.x at this point is likely going to be upgrading to an older 3.x release which we can't do anything about. This was a transient issue and I think the window for fixing it has closed. Not worth it for 3.10 or later. Closing.
