Thx Mickeal,
I open my repository with p2-browser and I see :
“201212181413.Default 1.0.0.08--cLY8zh7UEMUMUNDMkMc”
It seems this is the “uncategorized” category
.
When I open my content.xml I found :
<unit id='201212181410.Default' version='1.0.0.08--cLYCXh7UEMUMUNDMkME'>
<properties size='3'>
<property name='org.eclipse.equinox.p2.name' value='Uncategorized'/>
<property name='org.eclipse.equinox.p2.description' value='Default category for otherwise uncategorized features'/>
<property name='org.eclipse.equinox.p2.type.category' value='true'/>
</properties>
This confirms that the category is present.
p2 allow to have IU which is not in category, so I doubt p2 create it automatically.

I use Tycho to build an eclipse repository which contains several features.
I would like those features were not in a category. (to be not visible in the eclipse UI by default)
I found no way to do that :/.
If I create a category.xml without category, it seems that Tycho create a category "Uncategorized" for me. (but I don't want it)
If I don't use category.xml, I don't know how I can list the feature I want in my repository (anyway, in this case the build failed : No content specified for p2 repository)
I'm not 100% sure, but i think if you don't create a category, then you don't have categories. It's just that Eclipse installation UI decides to show an Uncategorized.
You should have a look at the generated repo with Igor's p2-browser to see whether a category is defined for your site. If there is no, then it means the culprit is the Eclipse installation UI; else it probably means it's automatically generated by p2.
HTH
