Still facing a lot of problems with my first update site project (based on
Europa release):

I provide several features within 4 categories on my local update site.
However when I go to "install new software" only one category is shown. If
I disable "group items by category" I can see the missing features too.
None of these features is already installed and therefore filtered. Is
this a problem of the update manager or do I need to add something special
to site.xml?
site.xml:
...
<category-def name="device_drivers" label="Device Drivers"/>
<category-def name="tide" label="TIDE"/>
<category-def name="scripting" label="Scripting Support"/>
<category-def name="protocols" label="Protocol Support"/>

As said before every category contains at least 1 unique feature.

----

Now when I try to install a new feature (A) that depends on another
feature (B) then I get following error message:

<featureA> requires <featureB>.feature.group.<version> but it could not be
found.

Strange enough because I can see <featureB>.<version>.jar in the feature
subfolder of my update site.

I can install featureB on its own without problems. Still after that
featureA denies to install because of the "missing" featureB


thanks for helping
Christian
