Currently Pacman shows Total Package Size which is the size
of all packages that are going to be installed including
those that are in /var/cache/pacman/pkg/.
I propose to add Total Download Size that will show the size of packages that are going to be downloaded (those that are not in /var/cache/pacman/pkg/). |

Pacman 3 displays both "Total
Package Size" and "Total Installed Size" assuming the repo is
generated with the new tools to include uncompressed size.
But the request was about Total *Download* Size. Which is the size of compressed files, that are going to be _downloaded_, which doesn't include packages already in cache.
The repo-add script is currently the only way to add this data- future tools should incorporate it as well.
Pacman does not show the size of packages that will be _downloaded_, which is = totalsize - cachedsize.
User has no idea how much of Total Package Size is already on his/her HDD.
