Software catalog progress bar doesn't move for a long time

Description
When we open Gnome Software for the first time, it downloads a "software catalog", that process is informed to the user through a big shopping bag icon and a progress bar with the messages:
"Software catalog is being downloaded"
"Software catalog is being loaded"
The problem is the progress bar won't move in sync with the update in progress in the background, that update is related to the repositories being updated or cached, so this progress bar should move accordingly, instead it gets filled very fast only when the update is completed.
The user should know exactly how that update process goes with this progress bar, specially for people with slow internet connections.
