Bug Description
Binary package hint: adept
I'm using Kubuntu intrepid beta on 64bit, all packages are up-to-date (more details see below).
When I start the adept manager, I would expect a complete package list in the search tab, as all "State" and "Requested" flags are turned on.
Instead, package list in the search tab is completely empty. Only when I *deselect* "Show packages marked for upgrade", I get a list of packages that seems complete to me.
This might be a duplicate of bug #279332, however, due to the "compact" description of that bug, I cannot be sure.

A browsing mode is something that mornfall was looking at implementing in 3.1.
I think the fact that you can semi-browse the packages by fooling with the statuses is an unintended yet handy side effect. ;-)
