Bug Description
Binary package hint: adept
Kubuntu 8.10.
adept 3.0~beta4ubuntu3
Adept does not list packages which come from Third Party software reporitories.
For instance, if I add kubuntu-
deb http://
Adept cannot list package amarok-kde4, provided by that repository, but the package is listed in Synaptic.
The same happens for Medibuntu repository:
deb http://
Adept cannot list package w32codecs provided by this repository, but the package is listed in Synaptic.
Due this issue, is not possible to install Third Party packages using Adept manager, it is needed to use another package manager for it.
I attach some screenshots as demo of the problem.

In my experience it does, but only after the xapian index has been rebuilt, which doesn't happen very often since that takes a bit of time. It probably should be rebuilt after modifying the sources.list through the sources editor though.
