Description Michael Nottebrock 2003-10-07 00:18:29 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1.4)
Installed from:    FreeBSD Ports

Category `OTHER' is populated with ports whose names have been changed by PKGNAMESUFFIX.

`Installed' and `All' pages are the same: `All' page doesn't show ALL ports from /usr/ports/INDEX, but only installed ones.

BSD ports/packages are probably quite hard to fit into a utility basically built around rpm. Disabling BSD packages support might be a cheap alternative to trying and somehow pry it into kpackage.
Comment 1 groot 2003-12-31 15:30:15 UTC 
In CVS HEAD, kpackage shows installed packages under installed, packages where INDEX has changed out from under the port (ie. it's been updated) under updated, uninstalled ports under new, and all ports under all. The OTHER category has disappeared. Note that startup times can be much longer now. Also, there's a weird redraw bug in the Updated tab, which might be related to not all updated packages being displayed.
