It hanged on the above download only and did not respond anything.
Please guide me how to upgrade my system PHP?

It will take little time to download second file because its size is around 67 MB. Just wait till it gets downloaded.

Is it possible to add some kind of feedback? Show something like "Downloading 50%" and the percentage goes up as the download progresses. This will notify the users that the download is still in progress and that the program didn't hang.

I added the feature-request label. If anyone is good enough in python, this https://github.com/liip/packager/blob/master/packager.py would be the file to adjust.

Created its own ticket for that and closing this one #221 as dupe
