The install wizard does not show categories for this update site:
http://pydev.sourceforge.net/updates/

The version in the table only shows up when I uncheck 'Group items by category'.
Comment 1 Pascal Rapicault CLA 2009-03-29 16:25:03 EDT 
The following behavior is now implemented in HEAD: when connected to one site that has no category, an entry indicating that more content is visible is added to the list.

However, I can still see a problem with the new behavior when browsing "All sites" and one of them as no category. I would still expect a visual cue. For example add the site mentioned in this bug report along with the galileo one (http://download.eclipse.org/releases/galileo) and you will not be able to see the pydev feature.

odd..it appears there is a category defined in the site.xml, this should be showing.  Will investigate.
Comment 3 Susan McCourt CLA 2009-03-30 15:08:32 EDT 
This is a duplicate (with slight variant) of bug 262009.
See bug 262009 comment 13.

The site.xml is being ignored because there is a native p2 repository (content.jar) at the same location.  The site provider should be generating their p2 repo using the site.xml so that categories can be honored.
