'yum' and 'yumdownloader' do not print progress information unless
the output is a tty, as it's not meant to be parsed.  AFAIK there's
no easy way to access the progress if stdout is redirected.

With '-d[01]' we don't report progress even on a tty.. 
Maybe we should turn the progress report on with '-d9'?
