Bug Report — Missing detailed upload progress during package installation

[selimhaddioui]

Describe the bug

When installing a package using PackageManager.InstallPackageAsync, only the start and end events of the upload phase (PackageInstallProgressState.Uploading) are reported through the IProgress callback.

It seems that the progress callback is not passed to the PushAsync method inside InstallPackageAsync, preventing granular upload progress updates.

Steps to reproduce the bug

var progress = new Progress<InstallProgressEventArgs>(e => Dummy(e));

await packageManager.InstallPackageAsync(
    packageFilePath,
    progress,
    cancellationToken,
    arguments: ["-r", "-t", "-g"]
);

Observed:

Dummy(e) // e.State = Uploading, e.UploadProgress = 0
Dummy(e) // e.State = Uploading, e.UploadProgress = 100

Expected behavior

During the upload phase (PackageInstallProgressState.Uploading),
the IProgress callback should be invoked continuously with incremental values of e.UploadProgress (e.g., 0.0 → 0.1 → 0.2 → … → 1.0) reflecting the actual upload progress of the package file.

This would allow consumers to display real-time progress bars or logs during package installation, consistent with the behavior of SyncService.PushAsync when a progress reporter is provided.

Screenshots

Root cause

The InstallPackageAsync method calls:

await sync.PushAsync(stream, remoteFilePath, UnixFileStatus.DefaultFileMode, File.GetLastWriteTime(localFilePath), null, cancellationToken);

It does not pass the progress callback.

Proposed Fix

await sync.PushAsync(stream, remoteFilePath, UnixFileStatus.DefaultFileMode, File.GetLastWriteTime(localFilePath), progress, cancellationToken);
