I don't think that's a good thing. I don't know how to
change it though.

I have improved the [Install] button tooltip:

        'Install the selected data pack.\n'
        '\n'
        'This can take quite a while depending on\n'
        'the amount of data to be installed.\n'
        '\n'
        'GNUmed will block until installation is\n'
        'complete and eventually inform you of\n'
        'success or failure.'
