Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 47050
Install appears to hang--but doesn't--during lengthy processing

I encountered this while installing on a slow (400MHz) computer on the page for transferring user settings from an older version. This took a while, and the user interface was completely unresponsive during the process. At the very least, the installer needs to use the hourglass cursor here.

Problem also exists on much faster (2GHz) computer. To clarify, the delay is not the problem. The problem is that the user has no visual indication that the installer is doing something.
