Subject: [PATCH v2] knotty: improve the UI information
Date: Thu, 27 Jan 2022 15:22:43 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220127202243.26972-1-twoerner@gmail.com> (raw)

During a build you might end up with bitbake telling you:

	Currently 30 running tasks (2757 of 2757/3476 of 6390)

Which, to me, is really confusing. The forward slash separator and the two
numbers immediately on each side of which are likely to be interpreted as
being one unit (i.e. 2757/3476) but they're not. Also nothing is labeled,
leaving the user to wonder what these numbers are.

Add labels, spaces, etc. to help clarify the information bitbake is trying to
convey. The resulting line would appear as:

	30 running tasks (setscene:2757/2757 tasks:3476/6390)

changes since v1:
- improve the commit message
- remove the redundant word "Currently" in order to help keep the total
  line length manageable for users of 80-column terminals
